My 200TE (90) refuses to re start after journeys of 5 miles or less.
This phenomenon has only reared it's ugly head in February and this month, no issues during the rest of the year.
It always starts 1st time with a quick turn of the key, emissions are spot on and idles like a Swiss watch.
New Bosch battery has been fitted and the red topped relay with fuse beside the ecu was also replaced.
The car does less than 2000 miles a year.
Did the usual , checked for damp and corrosion and sprayed WD40.
Anyone got any ideas. :wallbash:
 
got to be damp in the distributor cap?
