need help from all u experts--rough startin' 95

[joyrider]

I've been gettin grief from my 95 sc2 auto lately--occassionally when i start it, it shakes n shudders and dies. it only happens during a busy night at work after its been driven on about 10-15 short trips, so i assume it might have to do w/ a hot starter? it does this for two-three times then finally kicks in and revs up to about 2 1/2 grand and then idles down to normal. any ideas? or should i retire this poor car from the delivery business and get a beater cavalier?

i don't remember, have you changed to the brass ECT yet? the ECT really does affect almost everything on the engine.

[joyrider]

nope i still haven't.
ok i swear i will. didn't you mention a mail order for it somewhere? that'd be best bet for me cuz i know i will never get to the dealership.
thanks!

that should be it, good price too. you may want to hit the little question mark by "add to cart", to e-mail them and confirm it is brass tipped not resin/plastic tipped

[joyrider]

Ahh, many thanks.

[joyrider]

ooh, bad news--they are plastic tipped
D'OH!!!!!

[sierrap615]

really? thanks for the info, sorry i don't know of any other place, maybe i should start selling them....?

[joyrider]

yeah, you'd make a mint just selling them to all us forum floaters . . . ah well, to the dealer i go!
