Re: 1995 850 Starts Fine, Drives fine, Restarts Weak
Yes, his test should still work. There's a vacuum line to the FPR right between the 2nd and 3rd (or is it 1-2?) cylinders on the fuel rail. Disconnect it and see if it's wet or smells strongly of gas. Aside from that being the culprit, maybe you can help us narrow it down. If you can get it to wher...

Re: 1995 850 Starts Fine, Drives fine, Restarts Weak
I believe this car has the vacuum operated fuel pressure regulator. When these fail, fuel can get sucked through it and cause a rich condition and hard warm starting. Search for FPR here ..it easy to test without cost. This 1995 850 has a supply and return fuel lines. Would the test still work? And...

Re: 1995 850 Starts Fine, Drives fine, Restarts Weak
I think you are in the right track with the coil How old and what brand are cap, rotor, plugs, plug wires?? Entire head and everything attached was rebuilt with new parts in 2012. Like I said, no problems until temps starting reaching upper 80s and 90s here in Ga this year. Update: replaced the coi...

Re: 1995 850 Starts Fine, Drives fine, Restarts Weak
Ok, Drove for 35 miles yesterday, half highway/half city, and when I parked I disconnected the EVAP hose and did not smell any fuel fumes. Also, I monitored the coolant temp via OBD2 port on my phone and coolant acted normal: 192 on highway (75mph@2,900rpm) and about 185-190 around city driving. I'm...

Re: 1995 850 Starts Fine, Drives fine, Restarts Weak
Try disconnecting the EVAP purge valve line to the intake manifold. Tape it off at both ends so fuel vapors or a vacuum leak don't exist. Try a few hot starts. I had a bad one that was flooding the intake at hot starts with fuel vapors. Beyond that, I would test resistance on the coolant temp senso...
