  • Hot Soak Hard Start

    2000 3.8 v6 automatic with 62000 miles.......after sitting 15 minutes or more after a full temperature warm up/drive it cranks several cycles before firing. Fires immediately when cold or if started after complete warm up/drive without sitting/heat saoking for several minutes.......any ideas??

    First thing you do is check fuel and spark to see which one is missing.

      ^ Agreed, my guess would be starter or solenoid on starter(which can be tested).

        Thanks........starter ok, it cranks just takes longer to fire when heat soaked.
