Chevrolet/2000 Chevrolet Cavalier Starting Problems
Advertisement
Question
My 2000 Cavalier has been recently having problems starting. Occasionally, after driving the car for over 30 minutes & then stopping to do shopping, etc., when trying to restart the car, the engine will begin to start then quit. It will not fire. After about a 10-15 minute wait, the car will then start. The battery is good & there is plenty of gas. Any ideas?
MARK;
I was wondering - how many miles since the last tune up or service ? as now a days the new cars must be kept up or soon you will have a lot of trouble with little things. If you have a lot of miles since the last tune up I would first address that than see how the car runs after ok
it could be a simple thing like a fuel filter , etc.
