I've got a '87 900 injection. The car starts and runs on all four cyl's for about ten seconds, then it runs on three cyl's for 1-3 sec's and then down to two cyl's and (of course) totally stops. When I remove the spark plugs, they're all wet with gasoline, and if I blow them dry, the car starts and runs for about 3 sec's. Tihs prolem only occours when the temerature is around 35 - 39 degrees Farenheit (1 - 4 degrees Celcius). Anybody had the same problem? Any hints? I think it is the thermo-contact (or what it's called) that tells the injection (the old mechanical Bosch CIS-system) to inject extra fuel the first ten seconds, that is the problem. /Johnny
