2000 Tacoma hard starting molf 08-09-2005, 10:51 PM
Ok I have an 2000 extcab 4x4 trd v6 auto. My tacoma starts when it wants to. The temp could be 30-90 degrees, the engine could be warm, could be cold, does not matter. When I start the truck, the engine just turns and turns. So I turn it completly off and then crank again, just wants to turn and turn. Then out of the blue, it starts right up and I have no problems until it happens again, could be a week or several hours. I am hoping someone else has this issue and is able to point me in the right direction on where to start. the truck has a new starter and battery and has 100k on it... b-maurer 08-15-2005, 04:51 PM Ok I have an 2000 extcab 4x4 trd v6 auto.

I was going to suggest checking the starter or the battery first, but since you already said those are new, you might try replacing the spark plug wires and/or the plugs themselves. My '95 Taco was hard starting at about 90k miles and someone suggested the wires because they're only suppose to last 75-80k miles. That did the trick for me. Hope this helps.
