In the last week or so, it cranks for 2-3 seconds before starting whereas it used to start immediately. I installed a new starter 6 months ago as you all may recall. I also installed a K&N fuel filter 10 month ago. No issues until last week.
Research online and on FRRAX is pointing to a fuel pump or fuel pressure regulator. Or the battery. Or the spark plugs. Car runs super fine once started and starts right up once it has been running. If it sits 6+ hours, it'll revert to needing extra time. Suggestions? |

That would have cost GM an additional $0.25 PER car!!! =8-0
They would have gone bankrupt!! Oh, wait. I think there's someone who makes nice door panels for that job at leas n a 3rd Gen, isn't there? But yeah, drop the tank anyway, to do the pump replacement job and panel cutting, if necessary. But don't just throw parts t it. Put a gauge on it to see what your initial key-on reassure is, and what the leak down rate is. This post has been edited by CrashTestDummy: Sep 6 2017, 02:59 AM |
