Hi everyone,

1994 C280 with 161 k kms. Cold start problem with cranks but the engine won't fire up. I gave it a bit more gas the it started. Subsequent warm start seemed okay. This has been a recurrent problem when the outside temperature drops (approaching winter). Couldn't remember what made it go away last time. Just had 2nd head gasket, water pump and bunch of smaller items put in (over $2k). Hoping this start problem won't be another big one.........

Any suggestion where to start checking? I am guessing this relates to fuel delivery system: fuel pump vs fuel filter vs fuel pump relay. OVP has the 'good' part number and I think OVP issues relate more to warm start.


Much appreciate it.

KC
