Poor starting
Hi My Strada starts first kick when cold, but when the engine is hot and you stop and try and start it again quickly (i.e when filling up) it won't go unless you turn the tickover screws in half a turn. if you stop and leave it 15mins it's fine.

Tyres for 82 Strada
Hi I need to replace my front tyre and will probably change my rear Metzeler as it is pretty poor in the wet. What are other people using?

Re: Starting
