Exclamation Starting Problem SA Capri

Hi all, I have a sort of weird problem with my 1989 SA Turbo Capri, starts fine drive it around and turn it off go to start it again and no go, cranks over and even races a little now and then whilst cranking, leave it over night and starts first time, also seems to lack a bit of power and lags in first for initial take off, I have changed the coil an no difference, I can take the fuel line off the filter and plenty pours out of filter outlet when I crank the engine, anyone have an idea as sure is annoying, can't really take it anywhere as it happens every time

Cheers Paul

Possibly a leaky injector , or even getting water into combustion chamber due to heat expansion when hot , just a thought

These turbo motors have a common problem with the Dizzy & Nock sensor ?? , got to the http://www.capriconvertible.com/ site and ask question there or sift through the info there.
