« on: 30 December 2006, 12:56:27 »
hello to all wozzle71 here 1st day on, just wondered if any of u fellas could help with my prob.
 car has never had a start up prob before but the other morning instead of starting straight away after heater plug light went out i had to pump the accelerator for 3 or 4 secs, has been the same since once running though there are no hiccups or probs noticeable.
