Car has trouble starting. It always starts, but sometimes it takes a while for it to turn over. It has never misfired; problem happens in any weather (hot/cold); and does not correspond to whether the car has been driven recently or not. This happens rarely when the gas tank is full, but more often when the tank is low. I was told at the dealer that it could be my ignition coils - since all 5 have cracks. The cracks do exist, but are tiny and seem insignificant. Could it be the coils that delay the car turning on? Or could it be related to high tensions lead problems, contact breaker or capacitor, or maybe something different like a fuel pump problem?
thanks
