Wonder if anyone have any ideas or face such problem ? on a sidenote... if you drive a waja, when u turn the key to start the electronics, wait until the yellow fuel indicator goes off before you crank the engine. as for ur cold start problem... go send it to a mechanic. for a carbie engine its common, but ur waja is a fuel injected unit and this thing should not happen normally.

I also took it to a mechanic but he also cant find out why...would it be the starter ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not very sure tho, I'm a newbie when it comes to these kinda problems. Ever tried a second opinion? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
psyk0 0 Report post Posted December 1, 2005 send back to proton to check for problems? i'd say most of the time they cause more problems.. send to an independant mechanic outside to check..when was the last time you serviced your waja? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
