ardandy 0 Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Ok this is what happens.VR6Engine cold, left overnight etc. I come out to use it and it takes a little longer to start and then when it does it last a few seconds before it cuts out.If I keep my foot on the accelerator (say half way down) it revs a bit and then cuts out. The only way I can keep it from stalling is by constantly blipping the throttle (on, off, on, off etc). Even then it doesn't rev as much as it should.This will carry on until it gets warm. When the car does get up to running temp it's fine, runs like a dream! Although it has done its cut out routine today when left idling for a while???Now I'm hoping its just a spark plug problem as my engine has a habit of fouling up a couple of plugs but I've had someone say it could be my head gasket? Weeps water in when cold and is ok when it's warm as teh gasket expands? Dunno! It's lost about 1cm of water (looking at the header tank) in several months if that tells you anything.I'm going to check the sparks when I get a socket set, any other ideas?Oh, what size do I need for the sparks?
