1988 1.1L Ford Fiesta?

The car will only start, from cold, with the use of cold start spray! I've changed the battery, the air filter and the spark plugs... but I'm still getting the same problem?

Have you done a compression test.do one if not, check your valve clearances first, a little trick i used once was to put a drop of engine oil down each cylinder and then try starting it without the spray, if it starts its the compression at fault. You will need to regrind the valves. prob solved :)
