So my turbod s2000 was running fine but now its giving me a problem starting after its been ran. if i let it sit for 30 minutes it will start right up. but if i shut it and try to start it again it will just crank VERY SLOW. the weird part is it can be push started no problem. so it starts fine if sitting or push started. but if i drive it and shut it, it wont start, but it does crank. the problem is mainly cause i use the car for delivery (i know WTF) so i now i just have to leave it running all the time cause if i shut it in front of somehows house, it wont start for another 30 min. please help thanks!!! the car is running on an aem 1052, which i heard could be the problem. the battery is in thetrunk, i re did the ground and the wire and still no good. The car was fine for about the first month it was turbod.

 

Crank sensor going out?

 

Overheating some of the starter components and not cranking effectively?

 

go to a shop and ask them to check your charging system. Your battery may be on the verge of dying or you might have an alternator going as well. either way that will point something out. it could be your crank sensor as well but I'd start at the charging system. im an auto tech here in Tacoma I'd help if you were local. hope i kinda helped.

 

still have this problem any help? i replaced the battery and redid the wiring for the reloaction, still nothing

 

Has it done it since you installed the 1052, or only recently? If it was since the 1052 was installed, I would assume bad tuning.

Like what timg said....did you do some mod or what changed lately?

 

Check starter ground or starter. I had a the same problem in my case was a combo of battery/worn starter and was affected by heat.

But if you can be sure there is no relation, I would still go back to the Battery relocate mod. 10' of wire doesn’t help and you want to make sure your battery is a good one with plenty of cranking amps like a dry cell Optima. Even then I’ve seen friends with this set up have complications.
