In the end it was the thermo time switch just to round off this topic, got a second hand one off a kind member for free :) however the 5th injector was broken too.

Where are you located? Im in Devon and I could spray your car for less than you would get quoted in any bodyshop.

Good to hear its running a lot better :) may look into the injectors shrouds on mine ;)

I think my fuel pump is on its way out, sounds like its a wood chipper sometimes haha

Interesting to see what the problem is as my GTX is a bit rough on start up sometimes and sometimes takes 3-4 times to start once warmed up and then cooled :S Is a bit embarrassing in a crowded car park... And for reference my engine has marks on the pulley for timing because thats what I had too us...

I got some off ebay that have elastic and clips to hold them on, which work well. Sadly I cant find them in my purchase history :/ They were only like £7 though...

My 89 GTX, Gunna keep it pretty much standard. I'm 19 and live in north Devon, i have been into classic cars all my life, with my dad (mostly British cars from the 60's and 70's, but now the Germans have invaded!) I'm an apprentice paint sprayer so hope to give mine a respray at some point as she's ...

The one i got did work but has not fixed the problem. Might try and test the WUR? im guessing this would regulate the amount of fuel going in?

Thanks for your help I'll whip out the clocks and see whats what..

Wheres that situated?

Ill have a peek at the back of the clocks them because the other end of the vacuum hoses seem to be okay...

Just ordered a second hand one from devon dub shack, lets hope it works. A company in Barnstaple quoted me £165 for a new one!!

Followed the 'Haynes Guide' to check the concerned items and found that the 5th injector isn't working as there's fuel and 12v getting to it and the thermo time switch works. So it looks like a new 5th injector!

That picture looks exactly the same as my engine haha I think the black bits on the end are a bit ropey, ill try and change them. Is it difficult to get to the back of the clocks because I might just check if its even connected!
