My 1987 F150 has been struggling starting up. I turn the key and it doesn't turnover. When I try for the second time, it doesn't turnover. By the third time I turn the key in the ignition, it finally starts. It always takes 2-3 times of turning the key in the ignition for the truck to start up. It always ends up starting up, but how can I get my truck to start up on the first try?
