Yes, Huw. Cold meaning "sitting until the engine is at ambient
temperature". To answer another post, the fuel pump runs when the car
is in a cranking situation. Fuel pressures appear to be normal. I'll
confirm that this morning. Temps here are currently about 60 degrees.
Thanks for the comments so far! John
