Sounds like a bad gasket on the EGR return on the back of the intake manifold

Check engine codes, and find out if you have spark when it won't start. If you have spark then it is likely a fuel problem

I just replaced my Intake gaskets. ($170) Same symptoms as yours--plus a whistling noise that increased w/ RPM's. Listen Closely to this.
 
Easy fix for your mechanic.
 
Good Luck.

Your options, are to pull the transmission and have it repaired, get a rebuilt transmission, or a used transmission. If the car has a lot of miles or other issues, it is the end of the road for that car.

Starting problems.... by swans500

Hi....my problem with my 1996 LHS is: Even though battery is strong, the car will often not start without jiggling the key in the ignition for a while. Dash lights come on but the ignition is dead....then suddenly starts. It appears to be getting worse. Someone told me it was related to the alarm?! Car is old but has only done 50,ooo miles and runs like new in all other aspects.
 
Thank you,
Dennis.

You need to be more specific.
 
Ignition is dead means there is no spark.
 
Does the engine turn over or not before you jiggle the ignition key? If not then it may be the transmission inter lock, on which there was a recall.
 
If the engine turns over but does not start then the list of causes is enormous. You need to check engine codes for a start, and then find out if there is spark or not. If there is no spark, then the problem will be no fuel, which could be a s simple as a fuel pump relay.
 
If you are not used to auto diagnostics on modern cars, then you will need professional help.

Hi Tuscan, thanks for the reply.
 
Before the "jiggle" it does not turn over....there is no sound at all. The first turnover produces a normal start. Sometimes there is an instant normal start....no rhyme nor reason....hot or cold, whatever...
When ignition is dead all dash lights etc turn on at each attempt, as would be usual.

I think your problem in that case is most likely a bad ignition switch or bad transmission/ignition interlock cable.
 
See if jiggling the gear shifter also allows the car to start..
 
You might also have bad battery terminal connections, a bad connection to the starter solenoid, or a bad starter solenoid.

code 33 by tsurnick

I keep getting the check engine light comming on. when i check the code it is 33. I have looked it up and it says something about the wiring or such on the airconditioner compressor. I have put that plastic wire covering on the wires on the top of the compressor. I also took apart the connector and cleaned it completely. Any ideas on what else i can do ?
 
Thanks
