   Hey, when I start my vtr it just cranks and then will fire and stop, it will do this 3 times before it will start and run but when it finally runs it ticks over at 5k rpm. Any suggestions what it could be? Thanks.

   Thought about air leak somewhere, dont know if my inlet is cracked, took all the body off, cleaned it, checked the gaskets, put it back on, new icv off my vts, new map sensor not a shits worth of difference!

   Icv on the vts is a different length to the vtr and may not work.
