Default Driver's side 1-piece headlight dim, startup problem....

I just finished my clutch install and I noticed a few things afterwards.

The driver side headlight is considerably dimmer than the passenger side. It looks like it might be out, but there is a little light coming out. Passenger side is fine.

Also, sometimes when the car is cold, it takes a few cranks to get it running. It will crank, but doesn't start up right away. It even fires a few times sometimes and revs to 1k rpm then dies right away. Wait a few seconds, and it fires up like nothing happened.

Any input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Dan
