4.8is Starting problem
When the car is cold it starts straight away however if the car is left for about 2 hours when i return to the car it has difficulty starting. it just cranks over and evenyually starts, not too long normally about 30 seconds.
Has anyone had a similar problem? Terry

remove the fuel rail and check for leaks.

I have added a bottle of Wynn's injector cleaner, I am hoping that this may help?

Just to let everyone know, dispite my last post the car has been fine now for 4 months.
Maybe the injector cleaner does work?
