I recently brought Dan Brisco's high spec Starlet Gt turbo. I’m having some serious issues with possibly the E-manage ultimate setup its running. It don’t like to start at all from hot it cranks fine an goes to start but cuts straight away 
when its cooled down it will start fine 1st time. Sometimes its just cranks but don’t even attempt to fire. Its annoying me to the point where I have no trust in the car getting me back home when I’ve been out somewhere for a short period of time.
I have tried the following few things new plugs as it seems to flood when cranking and would fire on just two cylinders then run lumpy clear its self out then eventually run on all fours.(It don’t do this as much now) I used NGK BCR8ES copper core heat range 8 exactly what came out of the car. I have moved the E-Manage ultimate's jumper number 21 to open circuit this has made little or no difference. I have plugged emanage on to a laptop to see if I could adjust the hot and cold settings or at least compare them with my m8s car which is running a similar setup. The main setup bar down the left side shows water temp settings I’ve adjusted these a little bit, but not enough i hope to do the car any damage. I could not compare the settings with my m8s setup as his were turned off in the menu. I did turn them off briefly to see if it had any effect but had none. Any settings we have changed are now back as they were.
Has anybody else has issues like this and what’s best to try and cure the problem. I would happily take the car to a mapper to get it checked over and adjusted if necessary but I fear this may not cure this problem. If mapping didn’t cure the problem then in my eyes I would be throwing money away, As I’ve been told by various people that Dan got this car mapped at a very good place. Is it likely I’m over looking the problem, and could be something simpler like a coolant temp sensor?
