Hard starting 87 TBI Suburban
My 87 suburban with a 350 TBI has an odd problem I can't nail down.
If I get in, turn the key, and crank it won't start for a good 5 seconds. BUT if I get in, and only turn the key to the crank position for a second, wait a second, then do it again it starts instantly. It seems like the pump isn't priming unless its cranking? Any ideas? |
