Car is hard to keep running when cold, usually have to start it multiple times before it will run. After engine heats up car runs great.

I would recommend checking fuel pump pressure when the engine is cold. Also, if the check engine light is on, have the computer scanned for trouble codes.

Let me know what you find. There are directions on our homepage under the DIY section.
