Greetings all,
Finally getting closer to getting my ride where she needs to be, but I've got a couple of questions. What would cause my '89 MKIII to start really rough initially? I turn the key and she doesn't fire until usually the 3rd time and after I'm pumping the gas pedal. Then she fires up really rough and I've got to hit the pedal a couple more times to clear "the junk out". After that she idles smooth, runs great without issue, but she seems a bit laggy. The plugs are recent NGK plats, NGK wires are about 3.5 years old and the fuel filter is stock about 3 years old. I'm running the Lexus AFM on stock 440's with a new bigger turbo Bushur racing BOV, Apexi air intake, stock PCV breather, custom IC top pipe (eliminating the 2 rubber & 1 plastic), 3" custom exhaust. I appreciate any and all responses & thanks to all in advance!
