Hi all,
I last night took delivery of my second Commodore. This one being a VT Acclaim II.
The seller told me that it had not been driven for a couple of months as he had a company car and it sat there waiting to be sold. When I started the car up when it was cold and it had no problems starting.
After driving it home (took approx 30 mins) I turned the car off and then restarted it about 2 minutes later, It would turn over once or twice but not start. If I gave it some throttle and tried again it started.
I then left it for an hour and tried starting it again and it started without any problems or throttle. I cant work out why it happens only when the engine has been going for a while and has warmed up. THe car drives fine also there is no problems at all.
Has anyone had this problem before or know what it is? My thoughts are the Starter motor or fuel pump.
