it turns over a whole bunch of times before it starts. not sure why, no codes or anything. this happen to anyone else?

 

anyone?

 

yea try checking all your ground wires, the one on your tranny the one near your thermostat and the one right up front. my was hard to start, then i put a huge ground on the tranny and she fires right up. if that doesnt work check your idle adjustment to make sure your getting enough gas.

 

no its probally not gonna be a ground, if it were a ground issue the ecu would noit come on, it could possiblke be a fuel deal, do you hear your fuel pump kick on? And is there pwr. on the ecu. If both your answer are no, then I would 85% sure to say it would be your main relay ( pwr. up relay ) Located right above your hood release under dash. Next time it happens , check ecu, fuel, and after all that, try unplugging the relay and plugging it back, that worked for me for 6 months and then the relay went out totally.

 

yea i'll check that stuff, but could it be anything like, old spark plugs, or ignition timing (i havent got it timed since i put it in), or a vacuum leak or something like that?
it turns over for about 10 seconds (or when u start to think the car is not starting) so then i stop and start it again and it starts up right away.
