problems starting
I have a problem with my SC motor. When the car is cold the car starts up just fine. No problems what so ever.
But when the car is warm Approx 180 and I turn it off to fill up gas or something, the car will not start immediately. It will crank and crank, but not turn over.
It will sort of catch and then go back to cranking.
Also I have problems with the thing moving when I start it up. Sometimes the car seems to "lag" for a few seconds before either dying or moving really roughly and weak. It will go for a couple of seconds and then the full power will hit like I have a turbo attached to the engine.
I don't seem to mind it, but I would like to find out the cause or find a way to fix it on my own time. For the most part it seems to be running alright. I only use it 3-4 times a week.
