Weird starting issue (Every third attempt)

Post by amd is the best »

I have noticed this for a while and have been upgrading the code as it came out but now that the final release is out and the problem is still no solved, I will ask. It seems to start every third attempt. I will crank and it will do nothing, turn the key off, then turn it back on (letting the fuel pump fully prime) crank and no start, but after repeating those same steps, on the third attempt, it will fire. Any ideas? Thanks, Nick

maybe your priming pulsewidth or cranking pulsewidth are too small?

I´ve run into the problem that MS maximum cranking/prime pulsewidth is to small for me on cold starts.

Maybe you have the same problem ?
