I haven't checked the injectors with my stethoscope yet but that will be on my list.

Doesn't OBD-I do open loop until warm up mode is completed? So the O2 sensor isn't a player. I see you have replaced the Coolant Temp Sensor as well.

Mine has developed this issue as well and is slow to start has new Battery and a new starter and new fuel filter some new plugs and wires but no new coil packs yet.

I'm just dealing with it by warm garage for now.

Yea, it doesn't read it till its warm. That's what is making me think it may be a fuel pressure issue. That would also explain the slight backfire I got a few times. Its definitely dumping so much fuel it can't run and high fuel pressure explains it. I won't have time to really mess with it till this weekend but I'm going through the rest of the fuel system saturday and if its nothing there I'll be about at my wits end. At least I have a nice breeze and warm days to work on it.

Would one sensor acting up do that? I did notice one of the times it ran long enough I revved it past 4k and the check engine light came on but went off when I let off the gas. It didn't store any codes though. Does anyone know how many degrees the computer can retard the timing?

Could you make a short video while the engine doing that? It would help a lot of us to troubleshoot it.

I probably can. It only runs for about 2-3 seconds if at all though.

Also can your diagnostic unit read live values? Relay status? Injector Duty? Etc? Would be nice to know what the fuel pump relay is doing after prime up.

My obd1 scanner is just the peake fcx. My obd2 scanner will read live values but that won't help me here. I might be able to get some time tomorrow morning to play with the car, if I do I'll make a quick video.

If you wana cross check with my live values i made a video few minutes ago. http://youtu.be/T7858_37ktM

BTW dont mind the noise i was mid way through pulling out my extractors need to get them redone today.

EKP Relay. When ignition is turned on primes then goes off. And Goes back on when started hope this helps in some way.

I wish i could verify all the values and know what the computer is doing but my scanner won't do that. That's one of the few times I'd rather have an OBDII car.
