Hi
I'm having trouble starting a transit Mk7 2.4 100ps rwd minibis once started runs fine but just a pain to start it's done 350k km no lights on dash and don't want garages guessing what it is costing me money.
Any ideas please ?
Thanks.

Does it play up when the engine is cold or all the time whether hot or cold..?? Air leaks at the fuel filter/filter head/leakback pipes are a common issue. This allows the fuel to drain back to the tank and it takes time to drag it back up when starting again. Has the fuel filter been changed recently..??

Sounds like a candidate for a good old fashioned set of learns may help. How long since the last set of learns were done..??
