hi i got the camaro about 3 months ago and it has that problem it takes like 10 sec to start what can it be. not even when its hot does it start fast can it be like a sensor or what?????????????????????

archemedes

could be fuel pressure is bleeding off, does it crank normal, or slow?

I would also check your spark plugs and wires and fuel filter

i just put in the spark plugs and wires and fuel filter and it still did the same

DMR94

I think it has like 96,000 a friend had it for a long time and he didn't use it that much i think its perrty good for a 94 or is that to much

archemedes

that's low, which causes problems too, rubber parts dry rot, seals go bad, solinoids will seize (injectors are really just a solinoid)

DMR94

what can i do to see if its the injectors when he sold it to me it had just started doing that so he sold it for less he said it was like a sensor that was in back of the distributor can that because the distributor is new. I think its leaking oil from the front seal a guy said it could be that the distributor is just dirty and just to clean it. that maybe it was that

archemedes

if the opti gets wet it won't work, given the description you gave me I would lean more towards a fuel issue, but it could be taking the distributor a few cranks to get signal. Injectors I would have them cleaned (never hurts) the in tank stuff won't cut it, you need to hook the fuel rail to a machine with cleaner

DMR94

how do i clean the Injectors what do i need to do. What about the fuel rail to a machine thing were can i get that or do i need to take it to someone. thanks for all the help

archemedes

take it to some one they should have a machine that hooks up to the test port, they disconnect the fuel pump and run the car off the cleaner, works great. It can be done at home but the equipment is more than it's worth

DMR94

so how much will that cost and wat about the injectors how do i clean them or does that clean the hole thing

archemedes

that thing cleans them, not sure current rates, usually under $50 though

when you first turn the key leave the door open do you hear something click on under the car?

DMR94

no i just hear the fuel pump sometimes it takes longer and it makes a clicking noise when it starts
