OK this is really bothering me.

Ok I use to have a problem with the car starting up then shuting off. Now it doesnt even start up right away. It cranks like 5 times then I stop cuz i dont want to keep going. Go to do it again and some times it starts but sputers a bit then goes normal. Some times when I go to start it , it makes a funny grind kinda noise to.

This is really pissing me off, cuz I have to start my car at my high school and every one is looking at me like wtf is wrong with hes car.

Leaky injectors perhaps? Maybe a fuel cut switch would help?

I wouldn't worry too much about cranking it over for a while. When mine has flooded in the past, I have cranked it for a couple minutes without any problems.

Same problem... same high school situation... kinda gets emberassing.... get looks from girls like "jesus... what the **** is that loser doing driving that nice car? he cant even start the damn thing"... But whatever, just get a fuel cut switch, it works for me every time. I've just accepted the fact that the car will flood no matter what i do
