Starting gripe

My car will only start the second time I try. There have been a few instances when it's started right on cue....but the majority of the time it's turning over but not starting. Then, I turn it off, on again and it starts...and it's not a HUGE problem as long as it starts, but I know it's probably leading to a stranded situation....any ideas?

don't say fuel pump.

Re: Starting gripe

Sounds like either a fuel pressure problem or something in the ignition system messing up. Have the guys from work use a ignition system tester and then a fuel pressure gauge. Should reveal a problem

Re: Starting gripe

I would let you Insanity but Kaotik already offered to take pic's of me(actually its kinda creepy cause it was even before I mentioned anything about a calender, Something about how he likes to watch, I don't know about him!)

Your optispark might very well be going. I think mine finally is - we've suspected its the likely cause of a misfire problem and now the motor has become harder to turn over. I basically have to crank it 1-2 seconds quickly, turn it off, then crank again and she'll start up ok - otherwise I can keep cranking for 20+ seconds on the first try without it turning over. I've seen it coming considering the opti has been swimming in oil for over 3 years - hey, maybe thats an optispark endurance record or something???
