Re: hard starting ever sence chip
 

i had a thought, just an idea though, i used 50v caps instead of 12v caps when i chipped my ecu, even though i had a few different people that know there stuff tell me there ok to use, could this cause hard starting?

i was told the voltage doesnt matter so much as long as its 12v or over, but maybe they take longer to energize some circuit or somthing ? cause i really dont think its my battery

they are just filtering caps...they wouldnt cause that

i say check the battery...my crx did that ---- when i first bought the car..stole the battery out of my little brothers civic and it stopped being a bitch to start...then it started doin it again last year before i did the motor swap, after i chipped my ecu..it starts like a charm..but now its doin it again..i think my alternater is bout to take a ----...i charged my battery up the other night and its starting good again..
