    Holden Barina 2001: Slow to start in the morning?

    Holden Holden Advice Holden Barina Holden Barina Advice Holden Barina 2001

    I DRIVE a 1.4-litre Ecotec Holden Barina that I bought new in 2001. It's a delight to drive. It runs sweetly and has lots of power, but it has been hard to start in the morning. I've had it checked and been told there's nothing wrong. Can you help?

    HAVE you switched fuel recently? A change of fuel can have the effect you complain of. Of course, it's worth checking the basics to make sure the engine management system is doing what it's meant to be doing, particularly during the cold phase.
