- 2001 Lesabre Custom
2001 Lesabre with ~136k miles. In the past 2 years it has developed a problem where after sitting overnight or for several hours, when you turn the key to start it will turn over for a second or 2 then it’s like the starter cuts out. You can turn the key off and start it again and it starts fine every time. Occasionally once it starts after the second try the engine runs rough until you give it some gas and then it smooths out. I’ve changed the crank sensor to no avail and there are no codes. I haven’t done the fuel pressure regulator but I did check the fuel pressure and it was within specs. I recently replaced the intake manifold and did new plugs & wires. It runs great otherwise, it’s just annoying to have to start it twice. Ideas???
