    Default Rb20 holding back until at optimum temp

    Howdy. Have a problem in the cefiro, that when i start it cold (which is now taking a while to start) it holds back the revs until its at half temp on the gauge.

    Its like in a carbed car when its cold and you rev it and it kind of bogs down, unless ur foot to the floor and its grand.

    Literaly the SECOND the dial is in the middle of the gauge it kicks back to normal and runs properly....whats going on??

    How dyu think your temperature gauge works?!

    But do try the plugs first, that SHOULD help your starting issue!
    Also does you temperature effect your idle, like when ya start the car in the morning
    will the idle be much higher than when its warmed up fully?? i know your yoke has wierd idle issues but besides that?

    blonde moment ha.


    eh no, idles the same all the time no matter what temp, its a little higher when cold as its meant to. When i start it first, and just give it a quick rev, the revs drop instead of rise, thats how shit it is when its under temp!
