Currently on 100% E85. If my car sits for a short period of time (2 hours), it gives me a 4-5 second long crank. If the car sits over night, it fires up no problem.
I have been doing some research and it could be anything from a leaky injector, a failing HPFP, and just how E85 works with heat soak?
I checked my rail pressure and lpfp pressure after the car sat overnight. both was at about 70ish. Then I drove to work today, and checked it 4.5 hours later and it was also at 70ish. It did the long start then.
My next step was to let the car sit a couple hours and then pull the plugs and see if any of them are wet or smell like E85. If so, then I was going to test that injector. This also didn't start happening until I replaced injector #4 with a new one from FCP Euro. I did code it properly. But it also just may be a coincidence. I might not have started the car within a few hours prior to the injector install since it was just my second tank of E85.
Anyone got some feedback or ways to test?
Thanks.
