#20014, "When i am starting my car..."


          

do you know why when i start my car, it seems like its not going to start at first, but it always cranks up anyway. it kinda does this "rmm-ehh-ehh-" thing before it starts up. any idea? TIA

Could be a few things. Battery going bad can cause hard starts. Could be the starter is going out. Also could just be the weather. emoji

hm...I'm wondering about that too. My car starts funny when I leave it sits like a week long without starting the engine. Takes a little while to idle out but runs fine when use every day. Weird eh... Maybe someone has a good answer. But for now I'm going to see if changing the fuel filter would fix my problem, then go wash my intake filter.
