Default Trouble Starting Solutions

Ok, I have helped out a few of you with trouble starting problems. I have more tips on turn overs and such.
- if the engine doesn't turn over, wait for a few seconds, press in the accelerator about half way and turn the ignition on; if that doesn’t work, try pressing in the accelerator half way, turn the ignition on, and start to pump the accelerator. if this fails, stop, you will flood you engine.
- try not to let your fuel level get below 1/4 of a tank at all times. this will mess up your fuel filter, and you will have to replace it often.
- when my car sits in the sun for a long period of time, or in the cold weather over night, it has this problem, so try to avoid weather climates as much as possible.... Garage, shaded areas...you get the idea
- before trying to turn over, turn your ignition all the way, but do not try to turn over the engine, just turn the ignition all the way so all the electrical components are on. let the car sit for 5-10 seconds then turn the engine over.
*** this trick seems to work every time for me.
-replace the battery
