I have problem to start the car at the first start, don't know why?? need help,

sometime is when the engine is hot, yesterday, i could not start at one try,after our group meeting.

following is my mod:

CAI,
Cat back,
spacko wire,
use mobile 1, with about 6000km
ngk irdium
oh, intake cam


sorry for spelling, hope someone can help

 

What exactly does the car do when you try to start it? Does it crank or just sit there and do nothing? Does it do anything unusual? You'll need to give more detail to get a diagnosis, there are all sorts of things that will make a car fail to start.

 

well, it crank for long before it start.

 

my first gen does the same thing I also dont know why
can anyone help us


my first gen it takes about 30 to 40 sec. to start in the morning or after I let it sit for about an hour or so

maybe is ur ngk irdium and wires..........
when u install it..do u do it the same way? or something?

that may cuz can't start engine

 

I think is your intake cam , maybe you are not getting enough air check your setup.

 

When I first bought my '85 Chevy S10 2.5 TBI it used to take a long time cranking before it would start, sometimes had to crank it two or three times. I learned to move the key to Ignition and wait a few seconds for the fuel line to pressurize. Once the pump turned off (about 3-4 seconds, it could be heard inside the cabin) the truck would start.

I still wait a few seconds before cranking the Protege... Just in case.
