im not 100% on this but... if the coolant temp sensor isnt working and just tells the ecu the car is cold, then it puts more fuel in. so in your case, the ecu might be thinking the engine is still cold so adds more fuel and is slightly flooding it.

make sence?

This is what I'm thinking also, see if you can borrow a working temp sensor and check if yours is stuffed.

May I ask where it leaked from ?

    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
