Hey all. Need some serious detective work here. At my wits end with a fail to start, first key turn. Been chasing this for 2 months now.
Symptom. 1st key turn cranks but no fire. Key remains at "ON". wait 5 seconds, turn key, engine fires. Only happens of first morning start. Ambient temp 15C.
So far.
New OEM Distributor.
Replaced Fuel Pump (Bosch)
Twin batteries in parallel. 12.8v on cranking
Open Circuit, EFI and fuel pump relays bench test OK.
Power at injectors, igniter and coil.
I have full 1300 page Toyota manual with wiring diagrams etc. so yes, I have spent some time on this.
As mentioned,. Only happens on first start of the day. never repeats, motor sweet as from then on.
Any help or insights would be very much appreciated. All auto sparkies in town are not interested
What am I missing?
Much Thanks in advance
Denis
