Good morning Everyone,

I own a 2004 Honda accord (Scrap EOD), as some of my fellow car owners will call it.

The engine runs fine but I struggle to start it only in the mornings.

Every other hour of the day, the car starts just once as it hits ignition.

Once the car is left in a state of inertia till the next morning, it struggles to start.

I kindly seek the advise of experienced engineers/mechanics on this issue so I can know how to repair or restore.

Thank you

Get an OBD 2 scan on your car to figure out the main fault. However this sounds like your crankshaft position sensor is faulty.

fitinwell:
Check your spark plugs
Gasoline level if it's not too low
Ground positioning
Check oil filter
Check your Kickstarter
Check your engine oil

diamond68:
you did it well ? You must do it well. I didn’t say start the car, just turn the key once so the electricals come on. Then pump accelerator like 5 times. After that you can fully start the car

RealEmilokan:
Go and verify that your alternator is charging and if it is, then your battery is gone.

OgbeniOja1:
yarimo it's a cold start issue. happens when the car has cooled down. he should check his cold start sensor and switch.

Abduletudaye:
1. Checked, no issues observed.
2. Gasoline level - low or full, it happens.
3. Not sure what this means. (Ground positioning - means Parking ground level... If the ground is tinted slightly backward .. won't allow nozzle in the tank to pick fuel..
4. Will check.
5. No issues with this.

Noted.

I didnt just start the car as that wasn't what you recommended.

I turned the key to the label "II" such that all lights on the dash came on, then I proceeded to pump accelerator five times.

Kindly confirm if this is in line. Thank you.

Thank you

If it is or it is not?

RealEmilokan:
IF IT IS, then your battery is gone.

If it isn't, then you either fix or replace the alternator.

MarketDispatch:
Buy new battery...

Arthurnna:
Eeyaa, frustrating right? Had similar issue with my Corolla,like in the mornings I will start it first,go take break fast, bathe and come back and it's still doing like it wants to choke to death,it will take like 10-15 mins or more before it will level up.. finally,the mechanic said it was the Cold starting sensor, after changing all the plugs, nozzles,even fuel pump join... So,there you have it, cold starting sensor

diamond68:
the pump must be really bad. Check the fuel pressure to see if it’s low .

yarimo:

justdollars:
Oga just maintain your position for politics session. No near here. From all your comments it's shows even in your family nobody get car. How can you say EOD no get cold start sensor as it's popularly known.

Remain in politics threads. No near here
