A few days ago, I went ahead and changed my plugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor. Now, for some reason, my car is difficult to start when it has been sitting for some time. I have a remote starter on the car and it doesn't matter if you start it with the remote or the key -- it still hesitates. It starts up like a champ when the engine is warm, or after it has just been started. FYI, I put it BOSCH plugs/Wires in along with a new cap and rotor. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

my car does somethin sort of like that,but alot worse,lol,but maybe the timing is a little bit off now or y loose connection,check along the stuff you replaced

 

i was haveing that problem too, hes what i tried and it works!!!!

put the key into the ignition...
place into the "on" position without starting the car...
You will hear a loud hum....
Thats the fuel pump "priming the engine"
wait till that is finished.
Now try to start the engine.
Should start right up.

Hows that work?

 

Did you disturb that wonderful vacuum hose, driver side of distributor, on the engine block?

 

nope,havent touched it,i made sure all the vauum was fine before and after the rebuild

 

did the letting it prime the engine for the lat year,never helped any,sometimes she starts fine, sometimes shes a *****...

 

Describe car *****?
Cold outside temp
Warm mornings?
Give clues?
Mine I need a new cap & rotor
Haven't changed it over two+ years.
Oh well. High spark realy overcomes alot!
BUT my cold morning starts.. it's rough, even after all I've done. Stalls one & twice, then loves it.
I'd still check hoses or under cap.
I know I had several more worn ones, cause of usage, that I thought were once good during my swap.
I even went so far as to separate my upper intake to get betyter view, access to suspicious hoses.
I did find several new ones.
That effor helped, too.
