Hello & Thank you for taking the time to read this. Problem is a hard starting engine which seems destined to drive me into a psychiatric hospital!
VEHICLE: !995 Chevrolet Caprice; Powered by the fuel injected 350ci LT-1 (former 9C-1) law enforcement vehicle with 62,000.00 miles).
SYMPTOMS: Often it starts like a rabbit whatever the engine or outdoor temperatures may be. When the engine is warm, it starts by barely turning the key!
NOW THE BAD TIMES: If the vehicle sits, not started for more than about 36 hours, you have a 50/50 chance of grinding the (brand new) battery into fhe dead zone. I am a heart-lung patient and will be evaluated for transplant in
10 days, so I want to feel comfortable that my car will not be a source of concern for my wife and I. Not to mention the fact that money is tight as we know there are going to be things not covered by insurance. Almost forgot: PARTS CHANGED BY ME: Fuel filter, Gas cap; Air filter element; Very high amp battery (got 6 years out of previous that was in it when I bought it from a great place (transaction was ez as one could want). I recommend the dealer 110% .ANYONE HAVE AN IDEA WHERE TO LOOK NEXT (With Limited Budget in Mind?)
PLEASE HELP.
BTW: The fuel pump is heard starting when the key goes to "ON" position.
SINCERELY,
Ray Miller
