I think ozzie meant, when you start the engine from cold (i.e. not been running for a while and the engine block feels cold) and when you start the engine from hot (say switching it off and then starting the engine again 5 minutes later when it is still at operating temperature (around 80degreesC??).

ASIDE - If you leave it more than 20minutes it can be then difficult to start if you have the hot start problem -

got to fuel emission exhaust then click on hot start problem fix if you want to read about it.

Ryson,

Please update your profile with your location (never know, maybe someone else on the board is just around the corner) & update your signature with your vehicle year & type (924 N/A - naturally aspirated or non-turbo - or 924 Turbo, also known as the 931). These 2 things will save having to ask where you are & what you have.

Thanks...
