    Hi,
    I hava a 940. It starts very well when its cold (first start of the day).
    But when I try to start it the second time, after a few or a lot km's, I
    need to throttle(I don't know the right expression) a lot. When the engine
    starts it often stops when idle and needs to start again. What can cause
    this?

    Sounds like the throttle position sensor is a hair out of adjustment. Once
    it heats up the switch is in the wrong position.

    A dirty inlet tract (from filter to manifold) can cause this. Don't forget the
    IACV.

    Cheers, Peter.

    Have the throttle body cleaned and set upcorrectly. Sounds like the throttle
    position sensor is not set right.
