2000 Civic Starts hard when fuel is low.
My 2000 honda civic that I bought new has always started hard after sitting when the fuel is low (<1/8 tank). Anyone else have this problem? Mine has done this since the day I bought it.
Also, the front suspension makes a lot of noise when hitting bumps around corners when it is cold out. Anyone else have that?
Thanks!

If you mean you have to turn the key and hold it when you have low gas, that happens with every car.
The suspension the I'd check you alignment
All are fairly normal

well make sure that you let the car prime and the engine light turns off cause it takes longer for it to prime when you have less fuel in the car so just leave the car in the on position for a few seconds and then start it

As stated, it is normal. Just leave the key in the ON position for 5-10 seconds before you crank the car. As far as the suspension stuff, I'd get it looked at, but it's probally just the way it is.
