My car was having trouble starting after some aggressive driving. Turned out to be my OEM battery on it's way out.

well i'll have you know that i replaced my battery and the car starts wity no issues, i think your battery is going bad, bc we had the exact same issues

You gotta remember these batteries are tiny and go out pretty quickly. I'd start there, If it still persists then, oh we'll you have an extra battery you will eventually need.

If all you want to hear is "yes I have that same problem" then, yes. I have that same problem, but I'm running an EMS so start ups take a bit longer 90% of the time lol

Had the same issue and it turned out to be a bad battery(battery was only outputting 1/3 the crank power it was rated to). Go and get your battery checked, it's free and an easy place to start before you start throwing money at the car.

Do yo smell gas ever???

Hard to tell because of my exhaust, I'm also running alittle rich as well, what's the fix?

i just remember last summer i had a little sputter on warm start up and i would smell gas after i parked in my garage. i have stock exhaust so i thought something was really wrong but i changed the plugs and it was all good. no sputter or smell anymore

I am going to replace the starter. Battery and alternator were within normal limits underload. A buddy of mine said this is what happened to him months before his starter ate crap on him.

What a waste of time.... find the real reason before you go to the effort of replacing the starter. Your buddy may or may not be correct.

I've yet to NEED to replace the starter on a Honda.
