Car took 4-8 secs to start

[blippy]

Hi All,

I own a perdana with 6a12tt engine. Recently I involved in an accident and claim insurance to fix it. Now after got my car, I notice it just took significantly longer time to start. Despite it took like a 4-8 secs cranking, it is still able to start without fail. For your info, I've e-manage blue installed. Is it because of e-manage already lost the settings due to long time (1 month +) without battery? Btw, after it start, there are no issue with idling, acceleration, boost and etc. Everything just run fine to me. Battery also checked btw and it was OK. Appreciate if anybody can point out what could have had cause this problem.

thank you.

Accident damage was front lower part and most of undercarriage. Turbo blades I havent check yet but boost is still normal without problem / noticeable lag. Spark plugs are still OK. Any clues on how to troubleshoot?

yes. I'm thinking to check the emanage whether its been zerorise due to no power supply for a long time. But I thought emanage's rom doenst need power supply to retain the settings once its being written/programmed?

turbo blades damaged does not effect whether your car can start anot...
im not sure...if the ayam emanage (made in china) does reset itself......

Thanks Danz for your input. As for the emanage I can confirm it is original as it was bought from reputable tuner in sunway.
Today I found out after driving the car out and switch it off, the fpr gauge return to 0 immediately. Usually it takes quite a while before return to 0. Tried switching on without cranking, the fpr still stay at 0. After crank and then engine started fpr show at about 3 bar. Is my fpr kong already? or fuel pump problem? anybody know how to do simple check before i'm going to get advise from pomen?

Anybody know what could have had cause this problem? highly appreciate any pointers..

1.Key on, engine off = FPR stay at zero (No pressure?)
2.Cranks then engine on = FPR at 3 bar
3. Shut off, engine off = FPR immediately goes to zero (suppose it slowly down to zero right?)

Is my FPR gone bad?

I think it is due to your FPR, I have the same problem after installing an FPR. It will take a few cranks from the starter motor before the engine will start, only thing is it might drain the battery a lot quicker..meaning u have to change the battery like once a year..
