Hello - I have a Chevy Prizm base model. This Prizm takes several attempts to start it almost every time! It always starts eventually. I need to turn the engine over usually more than once to get it to start. Sometimes I have to attempt to start the car up to 6 to 8 times!
The starter motor turns the engine strongly.
The spark plugs and PCV valve have been replaced with new ones.
The camshaft and crankshaft sensors have been replaced.
There have been attempts to clean the intake and injectors with sprays and injector cleaner in the fuel, etc.
Any ideas what needs to be corrected to make my Prizm start on first attempt every time?
Thanks!!
