Starting 940

Jul 18, 2004 3 Replies

Hi, I hava a 940. It starts very well when its cold (first start of the day). But when I try to start it the second time, after a few or a lot km's, I need to throttle(I don't know the right expression) a lot. When the engine starts it often stops when idle and needs to start again. What can cause this?

Sounds like the throttle position sensor is a hair out of adjustment. Once it heats up the switch is in the wrong position.

A dirty inlet tract (from filter to manifold) can cause this. Don't forget the IACV.

Cheers, Peter.

Have the throttle body cleaned and set upcorrectly. Sounds like the throttle position sensor is not set right.
