might be a fuel pump mate, had the same problem on my mr2

You need to start with the simples mate.

Is the compression?

Is there fuel being delivered?

Is there a spark?

When the engine turns over does it sound like it has compression or does it spin fast with no note change to the noise?.

Remove the fuel return line and check that some fuel is coming through.

Using a spare spark plug, remove each lead and connect the spare plug, earth is on the engine somewhere and crank to car over, is there a spark??

After answering these basics you can move on.

Hello James,

My AE82 4A Carbi rolla runs nice and smoth

Fuel Delivry OK

New spark plugs and wire set.

Carbi cleaned.

Battry is strong.

Starter... Bad

what really happens when i try to start it when engine still cold it cranks really fast (whats makes me sad) but not firing up,

then i push the car and roll start it and it starts... but when this happens engine shakes like running on two clynders only and black smoke coming out of the exahust for about 10-30 seconds then it runs just fine.

this telling me that during the fast spin carbi overfilled with fuel so we cleaned the carb and we made sure that the floating is working fine and there is no extra fuel delivered, also i can see clearly the fuel level through the carb glass.

when engine is hot its starting fine... any suggesstion will be extrmelly appreciated.

Best Regards,

Samir

theres something wrong with the fueling at cold start my best bet would be your carb is faulty.
