Cold turbo start

teflonbless · Post by **teflonbless** » Fri Dec 17, 2010 11:50 am

I have the Jotech turbo kit. my injector size is 900cc

its about 25-30 degrees in NY on a 7am morning.

for the pass week it takes me like 10-15 cranks to get my car started.

i thought it was the battery so i replaced the battery

someone told me it is the cranking trim

can you guys look at my tune n see what the problem is

I would talk to jotech but on my set up I modified the colant temp and cranking trims to what was on the fpro help page and added 30 percent to the cranking fuel tables and mine starts in about 6 cranks after sitting for a few weeks in pittsburgh.

I read somethiing about people plugging the breather around the injectors and intake manifold but I didn't want to do that because I thought that helpled cool the injectors.

It's your cranking fuel

ID1000's FTW. Have never ever touched my cold start fueling and they always start perfect cold. Even down to 15 degrees so far... LMAO.

But yeah, you need to adjust your cranking fuel. Like the other guys said.

i changed the cranking fuel trim 2 days ago. and it fires right up first try.

this morning i tried it took about 2-3 long turns.
it was about 20-25 degrees

is that normal? im kinda low on oil

and haven't changed my plugs since aug
