A few questions.
I need you guys to answer a few questions for me.
1.My Alero seems to start hard. It has the 3400 have you have to crank on it a while (longer than it use to seem) to get it started. I do listen for the fuel pump to quit pumping and then start it but sometimes it still cranks hard. Any help here?
2.I'm looking at putting new struts on it. What's the best to put on for front.
3.I want to put on new plug wires. Which are the best to get. I've seem some that are 8mm and some that are 8.5 mm.
4.What are the best brake pads to use. I've got new drilled and slotted rotors to put on but want to put the best pads on too.
Hope these questions are too bad for you guys. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

I heard drilled slot rotors weren't the "best" rotors, but they are better than stock... as far as pads, I forget the name, but I'm sure someone will know and will post on here... other than that, I'm rambling on and probably not helping you... sorry man...

I have the same problem about the hard start. It does seem to take long. But there's no problem i can think of. I also have the 3400

if you give the car a little gas as you start it, it will start on like the first crank, not sure if this is good for the engine though, can anyone comment?
