Why Does My Car Need Starter Fluid To Start. Look for any air hoses or boots that are loose or in bad condition. Be easy with the starting fluid as the motor becomes addicted to the ether starting fluid.

On some injected vehicles as little as 5 to 10 psi loss is enough to cause a no start.
Tinker if you know a little about fuel systems you would know that starting fluid and fuel solenoids do tell us something about the problem. If any air is getting into the engine without going through the Air Mass Meter then the system will not inject enough fuel. When the starter relay is on the starter rotor will start to move firing up the engine. Why do I have to use starter fluid to start my truck sometime.
