After i have turned the car off and back on 3 times on the 3rd time it turns over but wont start, sounds like im out of gas, it sputters and acts like it wants to start. i let if sit for 7-8mins and then it starts up and runs fine. have changed both o2 sensors, crank shaft sensor, fuel pump, fuel filter, spark plugs. it runs longer now before doing the same thing still. whats wrong.
2001 Tracker had no signs of problem. Won't start after sitting one day when made a trip from Alabama to NC. Had put in fuel additive for the trip. Turns over, wants to start but will not...smells like it is flooding but I can hear the fuel pump when I turn the key on...
Hi. you should replace air filter and ad a gooooood fuel ingection cleaner ,this should help.Good Luck

Same deal, I open the hood when I stop for a few minutes and it will start normally. If i fail to put it up the Tracker will not start untill I open it and wait about five minutes. Im guessing it has to do with the coil packs and the temp rising when you turn off the engine with the hood down.
Mine does the same thing... but if I let the battery run for a little while, maybe 5 minutes or so, it usually starts up normal. This normally only happens in the winter on cold days.
when you turn the key and it will not start is the check engine light on?
Also when you turn the key and is does start is the check engine light on?
A proper start sequence should have the check engine light on untill the vehicel startes then go out.
I have a similar problem with mine I was just wondering if you noticed the state of the check engine light?
let it sit with key off most of the time starts right back up done changed plugs wires and fuel filter does this the whole time running
cuts out while driving like its running out of gas even though its not i have changed fuel filter wires plugs coil packs most of the time you can turn off the car and let it sit and it starts back up but does it again
