    My 940 with a 230FK engine starts bad. It needs to much throtle.

    What is the normal procedure to start a 230FK engine?

    All injection cars should start themselves without any throttle. Needing
    throttle would indicate a fault, possibly with the cold start injector,
    throttle sensor, or ignition.

    Just get in to the car and turn the starter key till it fires. There is no need
    to depress the accelerator pedal. The cold start mixture is automatically set
    when engine is cold. Check the cold start injector circuitry if that fails to
    get engine going satisfactorily.Usually the engine temp sensor for the ECU has
    problems.

    Cheers, Peter.
