Default Re: harder to start when warm.

Ok I think I have found the problem. 2 Leaky injectors. I removed the fuel rail with the injectors, pressured them up and foun no1 and no4 injectors leaking from the injector valve. maybe a drop every minute. This meaning the intake manifold/cylinder was getting too much fuel.

Can leaking injectors be fixed? I really dont have any way of replacing them with new ones, and used ones are going to be hard to find in this city since junk yards are illegal, which is nonsense.

Just to let anybody know. The problem was infact the leaky injectors. Cylinder no1 and no4 both were leaking (where it injects fuel from). No1 cylinder was leaking about 1 drop every 5 seconds, so thats a lot, no4 barely leaked. The same day I found the leaking injector I was experiencing misfires in cylinder 1. I found out that there was a lot of coolant in it. I replaced the head gasket and everything is perfect.

I am guessing that the leaky injector has to do with the gasket failing. It was only a couple months old, and it broke in cylinder 1, it cant be a coincidence that it broke where there was a lot of gas leaking in.

Anyways. I sent the injectors back to the lab and they assured me they had been cleaned again and no more leaks. Everything is back together and I have used it a day, and there has been no problem. It starts up fast every time now.

Thanks to everyone who helped giving me ideas.
