Have been having problem in starting. First thing early morning, no problem in starting and also when engine have run for sometime. only problem starting is when engine is stop for 3 or more hours(usually after work 4-8hours).
The first start will not succeed, got to wait 2-3mins and re-start only then it works. after that its moving very smoothly with no hiccups. no problem with the battery or starter. have clean the interior distributors to no avail.

Have 3 mechanics look into it and got 3 different opinions and since it involves expensive parts to replace as suggest by mechanics, am seeking help to anybody out there. dun mind paying for the replacement but at least if it get the problem fix right. Thanks in advance.

p/s : i live in a tropical countries, if it helps to solve above problem.
