95 hard starting

[mullise]

I have a 1995 Chevy Astro which is have a hard start problem. The engine crankes for six to eight seconds and then sputers and then starts. It seems to run ok after it starts. I have had the fuel pressure check at the dealership and they said it was fine. I replaced the plugs, wires, cap and roter, both fuel filters. Two years ago I had to have the fuel pump replaced at the dealership.

Welcome to the world of VIN W Astro vans and the failure of your fuel injection spider. Head to ebay and expect to pay around $250 for the part. Takes about 1.5-2 hours to install.

Good luck!
