Starting prob,

Hi everybody I just joined the clup and I;m really happy to be here. I drive A 95 Mustang GT 5 Spd and she gets up and moves pretty good. I just installed a MSD Blaster Tfi Coil,Cap & rotor it made a nice infrovment. However I still have a bit of a problem starting her up after its warmed up Does anybody know what it might be.

Thanks, Rob

How is it hard to start...does it roll over ok but not fire, or does it roll over slowly?

Maybe the starter solenoid starting to go, or the starter is getting too hot. Similar issue has happened to me with past vehicles.
Just going by what you just described.

Yes, I have been told the same from the guys as Lordco. How long does a starter last? I'm sure its the orginal starter.

Thanks, Whitelion
