Need some help with starting my '96 Camaro
I have heard that these cars have problems with their coil packs. When I turn the key, the engine cranks. I can crank it for awhile and sometimes it will go, but most the time I have to do a 2nd crank. It usually always starts on the second crank. Do I have a bad coil pack?
Also, what cold air intakes are you guys using? I want to get a cheap one that is better then the stock intake. Thanks! -Kevin

I have a K&N intake system. Some others have SLP intakes, custom intakes... etc... around 200 for K&N and SLP

Re: Need some help with starting my '96 Camaro
What engine do you have? I know that the LT1's have a lot of problems with the opti-spark ignition system they have not sure about the 3.8's though. When asking a question like this be sure to give us a lot of info about your car and application helps us help you...

Re: Need some help with starting my '96 Camaro
Since you say you have coil packs, I assume you have a 3.8. Mine are fine, but a lot of people replace theirs with MSD products. I hear also to stay away from Accel. As for intakes, the only "cheap" one is to make your own home depot intake, but real CAIs cuda dude covered.

Re: Need some help with starting my '96 Camaro
Was it raining or anything, or had it just rained, when the problems happened?

Re: Need some help with starting my '96 Camaro
I have the same problem with the 3800II engine. It doesn't turn over on the first time. Takes a few cranks. After the first time it turns on just fine. *shrug* No clue honestly, mechanic said he had no idea whats up.
