If it's cold it wont start. It cranks 1 time then stops and will do this over and over for 15 to 20 minutes. Until it seems to warm up a bit. And then it will start. Anyone have any suggestions? Can't be late again to work.
Please help.

Hi,

Do you mean the starter will turn it one time and then stop? Or does the engine start, stall and then is hard to start?

Let me know.
Joe

I mean it will act as if it will start and then stop. Have to turn the ignition all the way off for it to do it again. About 15 minutes later it will start. It's nuts.

Can I ask a favor. Is there any way you could record and upload it doing this so I can see exactly what is happening?
