Difficult to start the engine in cold condition..

Post by CHB »

i successfully start my toyota 3TC with MSII V3.. i configure it as control fuel only... one thing happen now. its very difficult for me to get it started everyday in the morning, the very first start in a day. it took me to crank the engine 5-6 times and finally it fired right up..
once the engine is in warm condition, i can start it up right away after i turn the key.. what would be the problem? any one have any opinion bout this?

What work have you done tuning your cranking pulsewidths ?

i did nothing on them yet. all the enrichment such as cold start, cranking and acceleration enrichment still as default.. which one should i start first?
is it seems that the cranking pulsewidth may help to fire it up at once during cold condition?
