up to now, I am out of options and very frustrated. After driving my truck a few hours after the new starter was put in, I still have to crank it twice to get it to start. I have ran out of things to fix. I tested the alternator and it is good, the battery is good. I have replaced the cap and rotor, the ignition coil, and the starter. I don't know what to do anymore.
Someone here had mentioned they had the same problem but it went away after replacing the gas pump. I would do the same but mine still works good.
all I can think of doing now is taking it to the dealer and see what they will tell me, but the diagnosis alone is $120 so I'm do and don't want to do it. what do you guys suggest? this is one pesky problem that is costing me money and its just not getting fixed PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!!!

P.S. 1.I have notice that when it does start normally it make a hard start up noise and feels like a shake in the engine compartment. and 2. when I have to crank it to get it to start, the start up feels delayed, it revs after ive almost turned the key back to the mid position.


P.S.S. IF ANYONE LIVES NEAR PASADENA CA. AND CAN HELP ME FIGURE THIS OUT I WILL BE WILLING TO OFFER SOME MONEY TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED. THANKS!!

 

Please do not double post your questions as doing so goes against forum rules. One thread on your problem is enough. The Lounge isn't even the right section for the topic at hand...
