2000es300 Multiple Attempts To Start Engine

[rwc1120]

Hi, I would appreciate some advice. My engine takes two to three turns of the starter to start engine. It used to start with one try. The battery is good and the starter seems to be as fast as before. I have about 90, 000 miles on my car. Do you think a tuneup with new plugs and wires would help this problem?

Yep. Also, fuel filter(s). Follow the 90K scheduled maintenance and it should treat your car well for another 30K. Expensive, yes, but totally worth it.

I would do the 90K service / timing belt / water pump / seals.

I would also plan on cleaning your IACV (by yourself) or replacing at the dealer (which is expensive).
