just given my engine a full service and i'm having a few problemswith getting the bleeding car to start.
it will stsrt just not first time, it takes two or three attempts. any one got any idea on what it could be?
plugs, leads, dizzy cap, rotor arm etc all replaced about a week ago.

did you set the plug gaps?
remove the new cap -does it look burnt on terminals?is it tracking -any sign of cracks?

few ideas to start going from your info and assuming it was ok prior to your work.

thanks mate the gaps were set, terminals look ok and there is no cracks on the cap, but one of the studs has sheered off, any ideas how to get it out so i can replace it?

may need to remove that timing cover first,then do what you have to drill it etc....would be able to give a good soak first when off.
