We changed the FPR but its still the same....loosing patience here with this and looking at putting a pinto into it !!

what about if the water temp sensor, don't they run rich if its reading the engine as cold.or maybe the air flow meter,have you got spares to swap about ?

and every so often mine will flood first thing in the morning, all that i do is take the plug off of the water temp sensor and it fires up.
