Question

My 1997 saturn sc2 has trouble starting first thing in morning. It tries to turn over, but it takes more time than Ithink it should.   It also seems to have this problem after it sits for about 20-30 minutes. Once it is running, it runs great. We already changed the battery in February and the spark plugs and wires. Please help.

Accepted Answer

Hello XXXXXXXXXX,

It sounds like you are losing the prime in the fuel system. The next time that you let the car sit over night try cycling the key on then off then on and back off again before trying to start the car. If the car starts right up you are losing the prime in the fuel system.

The most common causes of this are a leaking fuel injector or a bad fuel pump.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can help you with

Thanks,

Todd
