'79 528i hard start (archive)

Posted by Lee on March 02, 2001 at 11:15:12:

Hello,

My '79 528i is having trouble starting when cold. When I turn the key, it does absolutely nothing. I can pop-start it and it will re-start just fine the rest of the day. When it gets cold again - nothing. All the lights come on as normal, just no starter.

Is there a starter relay that could be sticking when cold? Any ideas would be appreciated, I'm getting tired of pushing!
