    I had my fiamms installed the other day...

    The next morning, I had a hard time starting the car, I need to start it up twice before the engine starts... My battery is new naman...

    If the problem is something to do with the "relay" for the fiamms, can I ask advice from you guys how to DIY...

    Thanks!

    Hmmm...mas malakas pa sa kuryenta ang headlamps at a/c mo. I doubt it kung yung FIAMMS ang at fault dito.

    Baka malamig lang nung umaga or something.

    OTEP, parang hindi naman ganun kalamig that morning... the usual temp lang...

    Bubbles, Ok, will do. But what if nawala na yung problem after ko alisin yung relay? Wag na mag relay?

    Thanks.

    :whoa: STOP don't remove the relay. ibalik mo na lang sa naginstall most probably mali ang wiring (kung yun ang cause ng hardstarting).

    Rediesel, ibinalik ko sa nag-install yesterday, pero this morning, hardstarting pa din...

    GlennSter, hindi po sa inyo. medyo malayo din pala yung shop nyo. i'm from paranaque pa kasi... (sana sa inyo na lang ako nagpa-install para no further problem like this...)

    Kulang sa power yung battery ko? (tama ba?)

    Kung na-check na ang wirings nyan at ayos naman. Hindi kaya ang alternator ang may sala? Battery only works before starting your engine, pag umaandar na ang engine your alternator supplies the current the whole vehilce needs. Baka di na kumakarga yung alternator kaya nadidiskarga ang battery? Better bring it to your suking battery dealer and have the alternator and battery checked naman.

    Or your vehicle's fuel line has a problem... now this is from another angle to look on if the problem still exist.

    Haka-haka lang po.

    Thanks for all the replies, people! ;)

    Ok na naman ngayon, no more early morning hardstarting problem... Pero gusto ko pa din sana malaman kung bakit nangyari yun...

    Ito ang mahirap pag sa importer mo lang binili sasakyan mo, no warranty and no after sales support...

    And I'll stick na din with Shell Velocity...

    Thanks!

    Next time, experiment one at a time, so that you'll know where to trace the main culprit. :D

    Thanks to all!
