Usually staring it cold after it sits in the garage over night there are no problems. If we go for a drive and let the it warm up then turn it off and let it sit for around 45 minutes then the next time we attempt to start it we have the issue shown in the video. The dealership was no help yet...

1991 MR2 Turbo Sometimes when the car is cold, it has lots of crank, but it doesn't start. Later I go back and it starts without problem. My mechanic says there are many things that could cause this. What are they? (Fuel pressure is fine.) A list would help me eliminate the possibilities.

I have had a strange, sudden problem with my '95 Corolla DX that possibly someone could shed some light on. Up until about two weeks ago I had no problems with the driving or starting of my car. Then one day after parking my car at home, the engine would turn over but not start. However after...

Hi, I have a 2004 Matrix base with an intermittent starting problem. The problem started about a year ago and I have taken the car to the dealer twice and both times they changed a couple of parts and yet the problem persists. I am hoping that someone here can point me in the right direction...

Hello, new to the forum and looking for assistance. I bought a 90 Camry, 4cyl, automatic base model, 175,000 miles on it about a week ago. During the test drive it ran fine. I drove around that Friday and did several starts with no problems. It sat over the weekend at the airport. Monday...

1986 pickup, 4x4, 22R engine, manual trans., 340,000 original miles. I have had a warm-starting problem for the past few of years: If the truck is shut off for 15-30 minutes after getting up to operating temperature, it behaves like it is flooded. The only way to start it is to hold the pedal...

I recently purchased a 2006 Avalon XLS, 120,000 miles. About 25% of the time, it will crank for several seconds without starting. Turn off the key momentarily and try again, it fires right up – every time. This tends to happen when setting for an hour or more, but can also happen after just a...

Hi, I have a 2005 Toyota Camry XLE, 3.0L V6 with 130,000, and recently, it started squealing when starting. I thought "serpentine belt" but when I searched a parts store for "serpentine belt," a variety of options for different belts appears. How do I know which belt? Moving on, this past...

So I just traded my old car in for this one and I've had it maybe a little over a month. Anyways, when I go to start it now, even if I just turn on the main power and let the radio start up and the computer (someone told me that's a good idea) and then turn the engine. When it turns, majority of...

I have a 2004 Toyota Matrix with about 65,000 miles, automatic transmission, FWD. It has two starting problems that are very intermittent – one more intermittent than the other. Virtually all the time the car starts right up – cold, warm or hot engine. No warning or service lights are on...

Hi my name is Josh, I'm new to this forum and I really need some help. I recently changed my timing chain on my 2002 Camry XLE and now it won't start. I have done this twice before on different camrys but it is the first time this happens. I don't have spark on cyl 2 and 4. I checked all...

I just bought a 84 pickup with a few issues but for 700 bucks I'm not going to complain about it. My newest issue just started. I was tinkering with it and it was starting just fine. My headlights had just quit on me so I was pulling my fuses under the hood and I pulled The headlights relay...

So a buddy of mine is needing some fuel injectors for his 4runner one day. I tell him to check my crashed tercel and see if they fit. He tells me fairly quick they were physically a different size. I forgot about this until friday night. I'm putting parts on the Paseo and decide to swap the...

I have a 1991 MR2 with the turbo engine (3S-GTE). My alternator went out last week and I replaced it. It was driving fine all day but the next morning I went out to drive to class and the battery was dead. It took a bit more to jump start it. When it got going, the RPMs were dropping and rising...

I started having a problem where my GEN1 1999 Avalon XLS was taking 2-3 retries before it would start. The car was turning over quite strong but wouldn't start. Seemingly out of luck it would start around the 3rd or 4th try. Since this didn't seem like any a battery problem I took it to the...
