Intermittent starting problem 70 challenger

Eric Merryfield · 06-04-2009, 02:47 PM

My 70 challenger soon to be stocker again can be extremely difficult to start. Fortunately the dakota stocker and my other cars are "drama free starters"

Engine Temp: ice cold, once it has some heat in it, it hasn't done this to me.

Yesterday, it fired up pretty quickly for it 3-4 tries in the garage backed it out.

Sat outside in the sun for a couple of hours, no way not going to start at all.

Pushed it back in, tried it just for the hell of it, 2 hours later 1/8 of a key turn, started it back up again 5 more times last night without touching the gas the same way.

Starter?

MSD ignition? Its a 7 pre-digital

Thanks
