Hi,
Yes I did tap the throttle body before I started, although maybe not hard enough.
It didn’t make any difference.
It always starts, then stops.
Like whatever checks are going on post starting suddenly decide to kill the engine.
Is almost like if it gets past 3 to 5 seconds of running I know it’s going to be ok.
Not much chance of starting it in these subzero temperatures so will have to wait until it warms up a bit, but once it does I will try the vacuum pipe test, cheers
