Car: 94 GT Manual 300K miles
Situation: When starting the car with the engine warm, the engine will turn over and over and over without starting. If I give the car a little gas while turning over, the car will start up, and then have a rough idle for a few seconds and be fine. The odd thing is, if I start the car using this method, turn it off, then try and start the car again immediately it will start up with no issues. If I end up leaving the car for 15-30 minutes (I've timed it) then it doesn't want to start. I don't even know where to begin with this one.... Any suggestions? |

QUOTE (Remy @ Mar 2, 2009 - 12:57 PM)  Get your battery checked and make sure your terminals aren't corroded. The terminals and battery are fine. The thing is that the car turns over and will keep going until I press the gas pedal... then it starts up with a crappy idle. QUOTE (Bitter @ Mar 2, 2009 - 9:31 PM) you getting fuel into the engine when it won't restart? In all honesty, based on my limited knowledge, I would imagine it to be something fuel related seeing as when I press the pedal it starts... but I don't know. I didn't think that pressing the pedal on newer cars made a difference when the car was off.  QUOTE (stephen_lee @ Mar 5, 2009 - 12:56 AM) do you have any codes? btw, not every code lights the CEL I have no clue... every single time I have tried to pull the codes using the paperclip trick, the CEL comes on and stays on. No flashing whatsoever... Maybe I am doing it wrong. |
