Title: Cold start advance
Post by: vwmike on October 12, 2005, 04:45:46 pm

I was noticing how there appears to be no cold start advance on some pumps (like Peugeots). How do those cars attain an even idle speed with no cold start advance?

Some engines come with an automatic cold start advance :)  such as some Nissan diesels.  Not sure about Peugeot though.

I believe the engineers used coolant temp to control cold start advance :) that would be great on our VW's
