I have 1997 1 kz-te 3ltr td which has a hard start issue.
It goes like this:
On a cold morning say below 7 degrees c it starts on the button great.
If you stop for a short amount of time starts great.
If the ambient temp is above say 7 degrees it cranks a bit then starts with white smoke which smells of diesel also if its a warmer damp morning it seems at its worst.
It also starts this way if you go back to it after about 40 mins plus. I.e once the engine has cooled a bit.
Any thoughts?
cheers
