Hi bparmer

Hard starting can be a real pain to narrow down because there are many factors that affect it. If the engine has to turn over several dozen times for it to start then it maybe a clear indication of a blocked fuel filter. Fuel delivery plays a major role in cases of hard starting problems bad spark plugs, wires, air/fuel filters, are the usually the primary culprits.
