Engine doesnt start smoothly???

Won't be the battery unless you have left the lights on overnight or used the radio while the engine was off for over 20 minutes. When you say it takes 2 or 3 times, do you mean you start the car and it cranks but doesn't start and you have to release the key and try again 2-3 times?

Hmm mine does that occasionally. Won’t start and then release the key, wait a few seconds and usually starts the second try. However it nearly seems as though it on the verge of stalling for a couple of seconds once it kicks over.

Yeah, happens to me too. We had a thread on this issue before: http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...culty+starting
