My yukon has trouble starting. once I get it started it runs fine and once it warms up it will start fine. if I let it set for 4 hours I have trouble starting it again. I have no trouble lights on and it has plenty of power when it is runing.

Our car starts right up in the morning just fine. The rest of the day in and out of car it has trouble starting. What could it be?

If battery and connections are good (it's a big draw,different then other components).Because a bad connection or old battery can sometimes work the starter after it sits,doesn't make it .Some times a starter has a bad spot,thats whe you see some one get under and directly jump it.If buying a battery get at least recommended cranking amp size battery,Larger auto stores check battery no charge (bad joke). Its free google /bing who does a free battery test.Auto zons,pep boys,sears.May even be running a sale.Most switch out battery for fee (no charge*),*Hopefully you will laugh later.

I am haveing trouble with my 1996 Mazda B2300, When I start my truck after its been sitting for any length of timeI have to rev the engine to get it started, I have to continue reving until engine is warm...

Replace the temperature sending unit/sensor. This sensor tells the computer to put the engine into cold start mode and it then sets idle a bit higher and puts a bit more fuel into the engine to keep it running without having to touch the throttle. Once it's warm, sensor tells computer to go to normal run mode and it's done. No problem.

Car will not start

check to see if the EGR valve is stuck open if it is the vehicle will run fine once it is warmed up but as you will find that it acts as the choke for the vehicle it should not be to exspensive to replace but should fix your problem
