Not Enough Air

[db800]

Having problems in starting.
Turn over engine and it will kick once and then flood sbut if you pull the hose from AFM to plenum back just a little will run (not enough air ) Have tried diffrent AFM,ECU, cold start sensor any idea's would be welcome.

Thats it David its knackered, you may as well sell it, How much would you like for it.........

Checf for splits in the hoses and the one from the AFM to Plenum you could be nipping it closed when pulling back on it.

Pull half the injector connectors off each bank. If it starts and chugs away then it's overfuelling.
Disconnect the cold start injector, you don't need it.
Plug a pressure gauge (0-5 Bar will do) into the stub hose that feeds the CSI, that'll tell you all sorts of things about the injection system.

Pull the plug from the Cooolant temp sensor and bridge it out. Does it start then>

clean the air bypass galley thing for idle, thats usually full of muck and making life hard for your engine.

aka clean all the intake stuff!
