Re: 1988 8 valve bizarre cold startup, vacuum bottle Posted by Landjet [Email] (#16) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Landjet) on Sat, 13 Oct 2018 16:51:29 In Reply to: Re: 1988 8 valve bizarre cold startup, vacuum bottle, Roger D [Profile/Gallery] , Sat, 13 Oct 2018 13:17:13 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
This also brings to mind that the check valve in the fuel pump outlet in the tank has to be functional, and Bloodnose ( I think ) mentioned the accumulator -- it's in about the same position on my 8 valve as the fuel filter would be. You won't find a Saab one, but the Volvo is still available, you might have to change the fuel hose fittings to get it to connect, otherwise it works -- I'm using a Volvo one. If the check valve in the tank pump fails it is a booger to start.
Once again, a fuel pressure / system pressure / control pressure test will confirm what is and isn't happening......
