    cold start issue. engine sounds like its not running all cyl's

    Hi there.
    Im having a little issue with my 3B s2.

    Opun cold starting. Especially in cold weather. Its hesitating very lightly wen starting. But thats not the primary problem. Once its started. It sort of sounds like not running on all cylinders for 20-30 seconds.

    Any good calls here?
    ill try to make a video of it later.

    Unplug and re-plug the MAF a few times, see if that helps.

            Distributor is old. But the cap is new. Ive ben thinking of the distributor aswell. Not sure why. But it seems like a little oil finds it way into the distributor aswell.

                Iirc if the distributor body is in the wrong position it will allow oil in
