Hard starting means that your engine no longer starts easily on the first turn of the
key, or you need to pull a small engine start rope more than 2 or 3 times. From there
it only gets worse. A healthy engine fires and starts right away.
Common causes: clogged fuel filter, dirty fuel injectors, dirty carburetor, failing
ignition parts (coil, spark plugs, plug wires), leaking fuel pressure regulator
1. HARD STARTING:
Here are seven common engine problems that millions of people deal with every
day. Every problem listed can be avoided or minimized by using Sea Foam Motor
Treatment in your fuel and oil regularly to clean your engine and prevent harmful
residues and deposits.
Every engine suffers from gum and varnish problems. Gum and varnish forms
naturally in every engine as fuel degrades and becomes heavy and sticky. These
harmful residues and deposits can restrict fuel and oil flow through the engine,
which puts stress on engine parts and causes performance problems. Over time,
these problems build up and cause parts to wear out prematurely. Cleaning gum and
varnish from your fuel and oil systems is the easiest way to prevent engine
problems.
