Added on May 28, 2010, 8:05 amso far the actual FC for my elegance is RM0.165 per KM (9.0l/100km) compared with the car's meter showing 10.5l/100km... confuse... never believe the meter laaa...

QUOTE(JonSpark @ Jun 3 2010, 07:04 PM) My dad taught me this technique, step on the accellerator(a)/clutch(m) for 1 min, release it then immediately start the car. It worked on my Persona once (maybe psychologically i think it worked) Something to do with the air-fuel ratio  will try that..thanx anyone know where to get decent mudflap and exhaust tip in penang?

Apparently, there is a technique to crank up & switch-off the Persona (I suppose the same goes with the Waja) You have to turn the ignition switch (where you insert the car key) to "ON" & stay there briefly, say about 3 secs. before twisting the key fully until the engine comes to life. Do the reverse when you switch the engine. Opting for a lighter engine oil, 10W 40 instead of the OE standard 20W 50 would make morning starts easier. Sure works for me. I don't know if anyone else have heard about this technique & vouch that it works. Feedbacks are most welcome. i always wait for a while before crank my car...my problem also occur when the engine still hot..not only on morning start...im using syntium 800 This post has been edited by arfaie: Jun 4 2010, 08:20 AM
