Hi all, My car is an '89 model C900 T8. It's had a service recently and feels great, but sometimes (usually the colder days) and running 98 RON petrol (I usually run 97 RON supermarket SUL) I get a slight run-on when the engine has been shut off. This evening, I had a little trouble staring the car (warm start) and had to give it a couple of attempts and quite a bit of throttle. Flooded on the first attempt? I'm inclined to continue using the 98 RON in preference to the normal 97 RON, since it actually makes a difference after this last service! What is causing the run-on - is the fuelling too rich? Bear in mind I have the CIS system, should I lean it off slightly? My battery is in very good condition an my ignition electricals are mostly less than a week old :) Your advice and comment, as always, is very appreciated.
