Petrol e
engines
These engines are equipped with a petrol
injection system that automatically sup-
plies the correct fuel/air mixture at all
ambient temperatures.
When engine is c
cold o
or a
at o
operating
temperature do not accelerate before or
during the starting procedure.
If the engine does not start at once, stop
using the starter after 10 seconds. Wait
about half a minute and then try again.
If the engine does still not start, this may
be due to a blow out of the electric fuel
pump fuse. See "Fuses" chapter.
When the engine is v
very h
hot it may be
necessary to accelerate slightly after the
engine has started.
