link up there i think i posted in the wrong fourm *corrado* anyways i have a question for you regarding something else also.
My Corrado has trouble starting up first thing in the morning after sitting for a while. Sounds like or smells like running too rich or ( I hear the pump or something else running in the rear of the car when I crouch down near the fuel tank area) fuel pump runs after turnning off the motor? I try to start it in the morning and I have to pulse / hold the accel untill it warms up a bit, then it drops and the idle becomes steady? however when i turn it off for an hour or 2 and come back it starts everytime. ?? wtf could it be?? http://****************.com/smile/emthdown.gif

Re: G-60 BOV Question (Flyin_Fox00)

low battery or poor wiring. The afterrun system can be disabled (see link in sig) if you don't want to deal with that , but i suggest trying to trickle charge overnight then see if she starts fast.
leaky injector or valve seal, pop the plugs after a night of rest and look for moisture (gas/oil) on one or all 4, while your there read them (pics/describe them) and clean them off with a good wheel wire brush and some tb spray or whatever you got laying around.
the usual tune up stuff i assume you've done..
