after getting my talon, and doing all sorts of stuff to it (ie new ecu, maf, isc, tps, rebuilt throttle body) ive still had the same issue with starting the car. It will start ok, but its extremely sluggish. Its got a new starter, and the battery pushes 550cca, but it still cranks over like a fat person. And after it's been running for a while, like driving around for a bit, ill take it home, shut it off, and i cant turn it back on for atleast another hour. The car just will not start after it's been shut off. It will crank and sound like its about to turn over, but it wont . The tech at the mitsu dealership said the hard start is because i dont have an egr valve, and the car is trying to pull vacuum thats not there. What do you think of this??
