Cold no Start cm870

[Rawze]

with a statement that implies roughly, "no one has touched it" ... that can be very dangerous.

- when was the last time the overhead valves were adjusted?.

- When was the last time the overhead cams were inspected?.

- when was the crank shaft damper replaced?.

- Is the EGR unplugged? / does it have delete programming in it? etc.etc.?..

- and if the ambient temp was reading wrong... then why did they change the intake temp sensor, and not the ambient temp sensor?. H#ell WHY did someone not replace ALL the old sensors that were more than 600k miles old!!!>??? + clean out all EGR the piping, etc?>
. -- AND AT 1.2 MILLION+.. REPLACE THE HALF-CARB0NED-UP DAMNED MUFFLER TOO!

- When is the last time an EGR tune-up was done to it?... Exhaust pressure sensor cleaned + its feed-circuit cleaned out?... and the Delta-P sensor and feed tubes?... and the intake temp sensor replaced?. .. etc.etc.etc.

- AND When was the last time someone did a proper injector leak-test on it>?>>>

I.E.> these things do not keep after themselves, and just driving it like a fool until the problems set in, or the check engine lights start showing up .. is very very bad for a modern engine!

AND an even bigger concern with that kind of age ... and based on your statements, for a CM870 with 1.2 million on it is ... when was the rod and man bearings last changed / bottom end bearings was done?.
