Hi all, I have searched and can't seem to find this issue covered here or anywhere so I figured I'd ask.
My 3.4 petrol 90 series started having an issue recently where sometimes after being parked in the sun all day it doesn't want to start. Engine will turn over, it'll kick to life for a second then die. After that it won't kick to life at all. At first when this happened, removing then replacing the EFI relay fixed the issue. Car seems to run fine otherwise. Then yesterday afternoon it wouldn't start at all despite pulling the relay and even trying a new one. Tried disconnecting the battery to reset the ecu and that didn't work. Thought maybe vapour lock so removed the fuel cap and no luck. In the evening once the ambient temperature dropped it started fine. First thing this morning it started fine and I dropped it off to my mates workshop but he couldn't replicate the issue this arvo. Hopefully more luck tomorrow.
Anyone have any insight on this issue?
