When the car is cold it takes 20 tries for it to start, it cranks but it doesn't start until like the 20th try.
When the car is warmed up or hot(2 or 3 hrs after startup) it starts on the first try.
Today i checked the spark plug and its black with oil around it so i went to autozone to buy new plugs but it still has the problem.
When i drive the car it feels strong with no smoke or anything wrong it just takes forever for it to start when cold.
Could any one help me?
I will pay you if you help me fix this problem.
Im located in long beach 90813

dude, theres oil on your spark plug. how hard is that to figure out? nospark=nostart
find out why the sparkplugs have oil on them.

I said i got new spark plugs already, cranked the car 5 times already, checked the plugs and theres no oil on there anymore.
Im not getting spark when the car is cold when its hot its starts no problem.

Maybe you have glowplugs instead of spark plugs and they need to be warmed up first,, J.K man, hope you get it figured out!!

My problem is different from everyone bc i didn't really have a problem.......
Its just that i have a start button and i have to hold the key in the start position and press the start button at the same time.LoL
Before i only press the button with out holding the key
I thought i had a serious problem but i just did the wrong start procedure for my car.
Sounds like an ignition problem, or you might possibly have a vacuum leak that's throwing off your ignition timing. Make sure your wiring is ok, and all your hoses are in good shape with all the lines properly connected.

You need to pay attention dude. Read the posts above yours. :duh:
