when i get in my puma it sometimes starts first time but other times i think its flooding and i have to give it full throttle to get it to fire then it will rev up silly high and idle like 3000rpm for a bit!
any ideas?
maybe tps???
 
This is quite comon, the puma doesn't like not startimg on the first go :) mine does the same, if i miss start it the first time. I don't think it's a fault, but you may stil want to have a diagnostic tool read out Your ecu's fault codes just in case :)
 
Wait 2 or 3 seconds after the dash lights come on BEFORE starting it. This is more the case when you have done a short run in the car and start it shortly afterwards but I did it every time I started the car and never had a problem starting it thereafter and I never once had to press the accelerator to start it either before or after doing the waiting thing.
