Answer 1

It's your starter. It may bench test fine, but once it has to turn the engine over, it is dragging. Your comment about it dragging, then hitting it again and having it start is the clincher. You probably have anywhere from two weeks to a month before it goes out completely, depending on how often you use the car (and how often you shut the engine off and start it again). If you can't get one in stock and have to order it, try http://www.buddyandoscars.com/Automotive_Cars_Trucks_Motorcycles_Parts.htm We have a lot of suppliers that may be able to get it to you faster than ordering it.

Answer 2

(1) Crappy starter
(2) Insufficient fuel
(3) Insufficient electrics

Starters tend to work or they don't. More than likely your fuel injectors are clogged and/or your fuel filter. Have you ever changed your fuel filter?

If so, when was the last time you changed your battery? If it is old (5+ years, unless you live in a cold climate, where it might be less) you could have insufficient electrical power.

But I'd start with the fuel/fuel filter.

Answer 3

you need to get the automobiles computing device scanned and examine for any complications as well as codes and then you will be able to have a good theory on what the problem extremely is. attempt searching an autonomous save particularly of the broking or a chain save because you'd be common extra delighted with the findings and the service.

Answer 4
