Car barely wants to start.
Recently car barely wants to start. It starts, doesn't die, but it takes awhile to start at times.
Sometimes it needs to crank alittle, probably 3 turns, but not long cranks. they're short.
or sometimes i have to keep trying to turn the ignition and it clicks, then starts.
Sometimes it'll just start fine. Not sure whats wrong with it. I think it might be the distributor, but i don't want to replace
it if i don't have to, i see how much it runs for.
pretty sure the spark plugs and wires are fine. decided to replace fuses as well. alernator and starter comes into mind,
but i don't know why i keep thinking it's the distributor. no codes throwing up. i know the cap leaked once, replaced that. rough idle. jumping idle.
