after the tenth start it starts hard

stanger8172 · 01-21-2002, 01:33 AM

It doesn't want to start after about the tenth start after long or short trips. Sometimes I have to try more than once to fire it up. I got a Powermaster 140 amp alternator, new starter, and new battery in recently. Is this because of the battery in the trunk?

What gauge is the pos cable from the battery?

Take care,
