So looking for advice where to begin. This starting problem has been around for a while but is no longer tolerable. SO many things to fix on my brick so I need to prioritize!
Here's the deal:
Turn they key, maybe it starts right up. 90% of the time though there is a god awful scraping sliding sound that after 4 or 5 attempts results in a start. She might die again right after starting but often will be fine driving. Thoughts?
Thanks.
