Has anyone experienced: Engine will not restart after stalling*. Symptoms: Continuos cranking after the fact only produces gas fumes with no sign of it wanting to start. After I arrive I can get it to start by holding the throttle wide open and cranking it. After about ten seconds of turning over it will catch, slowly at first, then faster and faster until it starts. My wife says this procedure does not work for her immediately after the fact. What I've checked: The temp sender, checked for spark using inductive timing light, carefully opened air box to see if mass air flow vane was stuck, checked idle position switch. Vehicle: 85 GL Engine: Gas, digijet Action: She threatened to send it to the crusher if strands her one more time.I think she was kidding!?! *Stalling: accidental killing of engine i.e. foot slipping off clutch starting up an incline,starting with A/C on.
