Default AU II hard to start cold.

Hi all,

Ive got an AU series 2 wagon that has done 130,000 kays and is being very tempramental about cold starting on 15-30 degree days.

Today i tried to start it cold, took minutes before it started and when it did, it was after turning the key to the off position. Once its hot it will start first go and also seems a bit underpowered and jerky on take off.

Ive disconnected the battery a couple of weeks ago and it seemed better for a couple of three days and then turned to sh!t again. Saturday i put some BP ultimate in the tank. Sunday i took the throttle body off and cleaned it (runs better) but it was not real dirty. The injectors were cleaned not that long ago.


What should i do next?

thanks,

Russell.

XAGT, AUII, BAXTMKII.................Toyota corolla
