 FIAT - 80 2.0 fiat Spyder starting after long non use - sherlock47

Thanks for your comments. I have done further investigation (Internet, not real!) and it would appear that it is a Bosch L Jet system

www.mirafiori.com/faq/fiatFI_may2002.pdf

A common failure appears to be that the air flow sensor can stick, not allowing the pump to run after releasing the ignition key from the starting position. I will investigate that first. I guess that I should be able to hear the pump running?

My first reaction was that if it runs on 'sniff' that the electrics are ok, but the ether is so volatile, I just wondered if it would run on compression ignition?

The visibilty is so poor it is difficult to see the individual injectors. I will have a good look again this week!
