Hello everyone. First time on the boards and I am glad I found it. Loads of great info.
I have a 94 and the wife told me that it is starting slower than it used to. I went out to the garage to see for myself as I don't drive it as much as she does and I did notice it too. Usually, you hit the starter and it fires up almost instantly. Now it turns over several times and when I say several I mean 2 to 3 seconds before it starts. It seems that once it has been started and switched off and back on again, it starts quicker. The main thing is thank God it is starting but it isnt' what it was. I have had the fuel filter replaced already and it hasn't made a difference and the check engine light hasn't appeared. Could it be that it is taking the fuel that long to get to the rails? I don't know much about it. I can't seem to jump the diagnostic terminal to look for codes. Can you jump a 94 or do you have to have a code reader? Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks
