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? |

What did you use to cut the hole? Did you find a guide online as to where the hole needs to be?

I used either a manly Dremel or a like a 3" cutoff wheel, it has been years now. I'm sure I looked on LS1Tech for the hole location. The final hole wasn't perfectly where I would have put it but it was good enough to get the assembly out. |
