Yup, Nothing comes up. My mechanic son says possibly the cold start injector might be leaking.

yea it alwasy starts up, but u have to crank it longer after it sits for a bit, which is why i suspect a leaking injector, also because it kinda smells rich..and gets bad milage

yea theres no codes though, and it does have a cold start injector, on the side of the intake almost below the dizzy
