Re: [Mk2] [NA] STIILL wont start on some mornings.

there is plenty of power in the battery,sometimes if i turn the key,and let it turn for about 20 secounds it can start, if i then rev it to burn of all the fuel,then turn it off, then it will fire up first time.
were did you get your 40 quid leads from.

Re: [Mk2] [NA] STIILL wont start on some mornings.

been to see some who knows a lot on toyotas, he recomended me to change my coil pack, as they can cause probs.
I guess this is a toyota part only?? maybe try a second hand one. :thumleft:
