Then life's not that bad at all... Thanks for the answers.
I asume that it's mostly the oil which due to tha air takes it's time to build up the pressure needed for the injectors to work in this case.
Anyway, if anyone has got a similar problem as mine (in the first post) it could be the injector o-rings. Just unplug the injector connectors, open and take out the fuel filter and have someone
crank the starter and you will see bubbels in the filter bowl.
Thanks for all the help.

After redoing the injectors, change the whole filter bowl with everythinh attached to it
tha symptom is exactkly the same...
Think I narrowed it down now to
1. The fuelpump
2. Clogging in the fuel lines between the tanks and the pump.
Don't think it's in one of the tanks because the symptomes is exactly the same which one I use...

Doh! It was the fuel pump...
Got hold of a propper pressure gauge and at idle it had about 4 psi but as soon as I started drive it that went down to 1,5-2 psi.
Got a new in and now I have 5,5 psi and it runs great.
