  • Car starts hardly

    My 3.8 was starting hardly. I took it to the shop and they didn't find nothing and the car worked OK. Anyway the car don't start as well as before, the engine turns over one time and starts. I thinking in the plugs, I have ever replaced. What do you think?

    If it's harder to start it oculd be a few things...maybe starter going bad, bad battery or bad alternator. I just replaced my alternator and it seemed to take care of things. If your alternator is going bad it may lead to your battery having a low charge so it could be more difficult for it to crank the engine. Just a thought, thats one thing that you might want to check out.

      You may check your fuel injectors, out here in california the gm vechiles 96,97,98,99 get buildup over time that cuase all kinds on problems. Dealer usually uses 1200psi of nitrogen to clear them. Also check your fuel filter, battery, and for corosion on battery terminals and the starter terminals.
