I am kind of having the same problem. Recently, but it only happens sometimes, when I try to start my car...it kind of whines and sputters but if I hold the key turned, it starts a few seconds later but it doesn't sound good. I know for a fact its not the battery or the starter. Ive had both checked out. Any ideas?

check your air filter n clean out your throttle body a lil bit. with carb cleaner.

Thing's you can try -
- New spark plugs
- New fuel Injector's
- New fuel filter - Most likely
- Try useing the fuel Injector cleaner they have at cheveron, then, If you can afford It, Get a full tank of Ceveron supreme, that should do It. If you try these let me know If any work, or If you have already fixed the problem.
