That's a combined intake temp and manifold pressure sensor, I guess the injector is in the head or between the head and throttle body. I'd look at fuel pressure and possibly this sensor. I had weird issues on my Robin that pointed at fuel or ignition system. Swapped coils, leads, plugs, throttle body, ECU and the entire fuel supply system. Even after swapping in another engine it still gave me trouble. Turned out the lambda sensor was crusted up but only gave issues when cold, a time when the lambda reading isn't even used. EFI is a bitch to diagnose without reading fault codes and live sensor data.

The black connector on the top looks like a simple power supply, probably for the fuel injection pump ? Most fuel systems run a 'fast idle' as you can't just dump fuel in any more for the emmision regs. You may have an issue with the injection not setting enough fuel into the system until after it's started, not before it's started? Gusessing now mind...

This is still an ongoing issue and with the cold weather its much harder to get started.

The issue is clearly some sort of choke issue. If this was a carb thats what Id be looking at but its not.

So, what part is responsilbe for "choking" on this to help start when its cold?

In the image, the electronic device on the left side is the throttle position sensor but what is the thing on the top? I have no idea and cant find this part on ebay or google to get a name for it. Ill keep looking though.

Yes, I woke up this morning to a winter wonderland with the first snow of the winter. We'd had a few light dustings before, but this lot looks like it will be around for a few days to come. It inspired me to take a quick snap of the garden front & rear -

Still got a few sore bits and a bruise on my knee. Otherwise all good.

The woman dropped off the money today so that's good.

But from what I've seen and heard from this woman I don't think she is insured.

He stumbled and stuttered when I asked her name at the time of the incident. She really had to think about her number.

That alone is not enough to think something's up but the wanted to pay me is suspicious.

When she dropped of the money at my work place she took a photo as I was not there. She sent the photo on WhatsApp from the same number she gave me at the roadside.

But WhatsApp says he name is Becky. But she said her name is Tracey. But I did find her on Facebook
with the name Tracey and not Becky so who knows for sure.

At least she paid up in the end.

It looks nasty but clearly could have been a LOt worse. Keep us posted and let us know how you get on. How are you feeling today ? All aches & pains or have you dodged an injury bullet, as it were ?
