Starting problem
Interesting issue here. Intermittantly, when I have to start the car and turn it off while its still in a 'fast idle' mode, ie, the car's cold, and I let the car sit for a long time, it will not start again, acting likes it's flooded. Car starts fine if I restart within several hours.
Dealer says this is normal, in that I'm interrrupting the purge valve from completing its job of purging fumes. What's happening is the fumes are filling the air box and fooling the ecu into thinking its flooded.
I counter and say I have a ten year old Camry that has NEVER done this, in this situation. He does not want to compare vehicles, not being familiar with the other vehicle systems.
Anyone else experience this starting issue under these circumstances?
