I'm a non mechanic with multiple problems:
When starting my 2001 vehicross with aprox. 57,000 miles, I have to turn the key quickly several times then hold the key in for about 8 seconds to start. My other problem is that it will die while I'm driving. Took it to a shop and they replaced the crank sensor, but that did not work. I don't want to fork over thousands of dollars replacing parts. I need to figure out what the problem is. The last shop said it was not the fuel pressure regualtor. I thought that could be the problem. 2 shops $1200.00 no solution. Can anyone help?
