Possible low fuel pump pressure. The system will bleed down overnight causing longer time to build the right pressure to start. This would also cause a lean condition causing hesitations. Possible weak pump or restricted fuel lines, Test with a fuel gauge on the fuel rail. Should be 35-45 psi while cranking.
You mean it will crank but not start ? Do you have normal compression, spark and fuel pressure ?
If the timing belt broke you won't have compression on all cylinders.
Hi
That means a hesitation in acceleration. There are lots of possibilities these happens when the car hesitate to move quickly.
Have a full tune up of your engine, just to clear up the possibility, air cleaner, fuel filter, sparkplugs, ignition timing, high tension wire( spark plug cable ), and cleaning up the airflometer.
Have your favorite mechanic do check on those first.
That hesitation have two major part that always breaks down, the fuel filter is already blocked and the ignition timing ( distributor igniting points corrosion and vacuum advance failure due to vacuum leaks ).
Hope that helps you.
Thanks for using FixYa!
The fuel filter should be changed first.
The engine fuel pressure over night is bleeding down into the fuel tank. I would suggest a tune up . If the condition continues after a tune up. The fuel pump is starting to go. You should then have a mechanic check out the fuel system and have the vehicle diagnose.
Try having heater core flushed and replace the heater control valve. As for the hesitation, that could be the 02 sensor needs to be replaced, or something may be clogged in the fuel system. my van is a 3.0. Had to replace fuel pump. Also when you've had work done like that the mechanic needs to reset computer, once that done it takes a while for it to run properly again. Hope this helps.
