cold start valve question
also i tested the cold start valve by running a bypass on the pump to run it without turning it over everytime, and putting a direct feed of power to and earth it and it worked good. so i can't understand why it wont work cranking over. i know it gets it opower from the starter motor. does the cold start valve run through a fuse or relay? cheers

I've had a problemwith my cold start valvefor a while in the there's no voltage to it. Can I run a lead from the starter motor to the the valve to test it then?
Look at the wiring diagram - the TTS and cold start valve are both in the circuit, which is fed from terminal 50 either from the starter motor or the fusebox (+12V only when starter motor cranking). Its not just a case of running a wire here & there, you'd need to make up the correct circuit to test it, or wire a dash mounted switch independent of the TTS.

Considering the Starter is cranking drawing alot of power from the battery I would say it is very unlikely to have 12V as anyone with A voltage VDO guage would see it dip down to around 9V on cranking as I do.
