its my dads accord and i just cant figure it out it need a auto tranny so the mechanic had put it in and when the car is cold i try to crank it and it doesnt want to crank i have to do it a few times like about 3 6 times with my foot on the accelerator all the way to the floor and then it starts and drives very nice other than that problem it sound like it off timing but i checked and it is not it. its right on the money so i dont know what to do o and the mechanic change the water pump if that matters so what do you guys think

 

Well, I think you need punctuation because that's near impossible to read.

Also, there are many years and styles of accords. We dont know which one you have.

 

if you have to push the gas before or while starting, it sounds like a fuel pump issue

 

what do you mean by dosent crank?

if it does not turn over at all it is one of the following things

1. bad starter
2. bad starter relay
3. open wire in system
4. battery/alt charge issue
5. ignition switch failure

 

i have coilovers and my rack and pinion is bad can i just raise the car to fit the proper height of the stock shocks
