    hard to start..leaking injector?

    My VX has been hard to restart after it warms up and I think it is a leaking injector because if I hold the throttle open it fires up pretty quick. eg rich condition and needs more air. Otherwise it cranks and cranks before it hits.

    Has anyone experienced this before? The VX use to be really good about firing after a few cranks.

    Auto X,

    I had same problem, it would start right up when cold, then crank & crank B-4 it would start when warm.Took it to dealer & they replaced the fuel press. reg. I think...It's been a while.
    They indicated it was a common problem in this engine.

    Good Luck,

    Ldub
