    Rear window channel

    Had a rear door window glass come out of it mount . I used a little bead of black auto grade silicon . I also found a few drops of 3:1 oil on the side edge of glass helps the window glide up and down in its frame seal . They do get a bit dry and make the glass stick when closed

    As said above check ecu red plug for oil . Also is your battery cranking over at a good speed for a morning start up . And you could try next time if it don't start up 1st time then doing a purge on the fuel lines . To see if any airs in the lines . The purge start up is in the hand book
