    would not start with a jump but did start with a tow,, tow means car is a stick shift and you tow started in and dumped the cllutch?

    top causes, never tuned up with the 60,000 mile, or 100kmeter list.

  • _-__-___-_
    _-__-___-_ Dec 31, 2014

    that means bad spark, for all those normal reasons. bad fuel, wet ignition, or lack of starting AIR,FILTY AIR CLEAner, OR the ISC froze, due to icing and kill start air, the usage of 5 % throttle easy starts, implies lost air supply, or the EGR valve is leaking, or is flooding, injectors leaking (no year, i must guess like crazy) for all I know car has CARB. and more lots more.

    92 , T160 OR T190 WITH "3S-GELU" engine.

    _-__-___-_ Dec 31, 2014

    THE 3S,ENGINES Vary all over the world, in japan the EGR IS MISSING. OR The 3SFE engine. Generation 2 engine. so try new spark plugs and new spark plug wires sets? yet? water in the fuel filter? ever change it at 60k miles?

    our model "E" has a coil pack replace wires 1 by 1 or wreck firing order, next is coil pack may be bad , then clean EGR, all this is in the 60k service listing.

Not familiar with your specific engine so some of this may not apply. Generally, sounds as if whatever acts as a choke on your engine has failed. Most common would be a coolant temp sensor, cold start injector, or very likely a moisture related issue, such as bad plug wires,cracked distributor cap, etc.

Car always needs a jump start, battery good,2003 tracker,even with every day warm ups

You need to have a load test done on that battery Esther. The only other thing would be if your tracker would have a 12 volt drain.

1991 toyota camry wont start - lights on inside car - no clicking sounds - battery was jumped next day still wont start

No clicking sounds that means when your contacts touch to ignite your starter it is not working your starter is broken

1999 toyota four runner wont start. why

you may have a battery even though its been tested.it possible that there is a bad cell in the battery causing the problem. jump starting it to get it to run tells me this maybe what`s happening as when jump starting it may burn the bridge in the cell that is causing a short within the battery. when it`s running have the charging system check at a repair shop, as some parts stores don`t know how to properly check things(read between what they see and symptoms) and take test results at face value.

Car wont start, not getting spark

crankshaft sensor, or computer on toyotas then it was usually the distributor or the computer, but the crankshaft sensor might be bad too thats what helps to get you spark.

The engine wont start in the morning but it takes 2 mins to jump it and will start first time all day.

If your vehicle is petrol powered, something, most likely the starter motor, is drawing too much current and robbing the ignition circuit. Oce started the engine will continue to start all day long, untill next morning. Have the starter motor checked out & make sure your engine oil is not too heavy for your climate too. It would be an idea to have your battery discharge rate tested while you're at it.
