Trouble with '97 QX4 starting......

[jdawg45]

The motor cranks, but takes a few seconds to "turnover". Getting ready to put new spark-plugs in but if this doesnt work Im stuck. Already has new fuel filter, cap and wires.

So it runs, but it's just slow starting??

What's happens when you turn the key before it starts turning over? Any clicking?

Ive moved this to the QX4 forum.

If you're getting good spark my first inclination is always to check fuel pressure after replacing the fuel filter.

Nope.....no clicking. It runs fine after it starts.

What I do, when you click the key to "ON", wait a few seconds before you click it over to "START" (ignition). It starts the fuel pump, and pressurizes the lines, and that usually takes few seconds or less... For me, it starts easier that way
