It's quite a problem with the AJ V8 engine, when they're cold they inject a lot of fuel, if you start up and switch off within a few seconds then leave the car this fuel floods the engine,wets the plugs and washes the oil out of the barrels which lowers compression and makes the car hard to start.
I've had it 3 months now but this is the 1st time i've started it, drove it 10 feet then switched it off, I had a 4.0 Stype which did the same.
Anyway I got away with it this time, left it overnight and this morning it fired up OK ish, bit rough to start with but running fine now
