Hi everyone.


I have a question regarding pressure regulators & fuel pumps. As they
age, as in the original part, do they become less effective in colder
weather?
A few mornings now with temperatures around 2 Cel to 5 Cel and damp, my
motor cranks, fires, and stalls. Have to keep on the throttle until it
warms up a bit, then fine all day. Feels like the engine is starved for
fuel. I can hear the fuel pump click on, throttle switch clicks and in
spec., temp sensor 2 reads ok, oxy sensor working, but as this point not
online. Any ideas. Thanks again.
