welcome to the forum. When new the car had no problems starting when below 20, pump the gas 3 times turn the key. At this point with out knowing how it's beem maintained hard starting could be caused by many issues.
ya here in the next couple of days i plane on trying to get a carfax for it, to see what alls been done to it, i know that the motor that is in it came out of a buick, but im guessing that was an older one, ill try and post some pics here in the next day or two, the engine runs strong after started, doesnt sound like it has any issues, but i also just got the car last night so, still just trying to get some info on it, thanks for the quick response.
