Hi there, Ba six cylinder ute petrol manual, 7 or 8 times out of ten as soon as you turn the key it fires, run good drives away beautiful, then all of a sudden you try and start it and you crank it over and over then it starts in a cloud of smoke out the exhaust and runs like crap, hard to take of idles rough, stalls and annoys the crap outa you, any advise

When it runs crap does it get better over time?

I'm thinking a leaky fuel injector and she's running rich as if it clears up over time

No doesn't seem to improve , sometimes you turn it of and restart it and it seems to run better. Yet other times it will fire as soon as you hit the key and run perfect

TPS? Ours is doing the same thing, but it only runs poor after a few minutes of running never starts up rough, have to restart also to eliminate the problem.

If it's the TPS an orange warning light should be up on the dashboard.
