93 ZJ staring problem
Hello,
my 93 ZJ (inline 6) seems to have a starting problem at times. When the engine is cold it seems to start without a problem. After I drive it for 10 mins or so and start it again it doesn't seem to want to start. (when it is running it seems to run fine). When I try to start it it seems to turn over, but doesn't start. The engine seems to get hot, but the gauge doesn't says it is. (last night after 2 hours the engine seemed to be pretty war still. (coolant and oil levels are ok) any suggestions ? thanks, Ron |

Re: 93 ZJ staring problem
Ok, I did that...
it blinks 5 times, twice. And that means that the code is 55 meaning that the test was completed (right ?) I didn't see any other codes. Question is, would the code only appear when the problem is there ? (If not mistaken that computer "remembers" the last error code... right ?)
