Starting cold issue
PowerFC-Single turbo - 1600cc - 850cc injectors.
Do you know what to change so I can start the car easy during cold start?
I have to squirt a lot of starting fluid to make it run & to idle.
After a minute that the car started, I can re-start it again.
I have a datalogit but I don't know what value i need to change
to start the car a bit easier when cold.

Is Settings 4 IGN vs Water T Cool rertard turned off?
Is Settings 2 Water Temp Correction properly adjusted?
How are your Settings 2 Cranking values.
The first step in tuning and the base for all tuning, is getting a fully warmed up engine to idle perfectly. Then work on cold starting without changing any of the warm idle values.
It is logical!

Thanks CEWrx --- I will try that but I think my problem was:
not having anti freeze in the radiator. I have a brand new radiator and and cooling system. I tried to start it without anti freeze and perhaps the coolant temp sensor delaying or preventing it to start. I will fill it up today.
If still hard to start, I will follow your advice....& get back -- many thanks.
