Hi my car starts up normal most of the time, but sometimes it takes a second to start up. I just changed the fuel filter yesterday. Do you think its something bad or easy fix? Thanks

Im sure its fine. As long as it starts, dont worry about it.

my car does the same thing about every 3 or 4 times. its not a problem.

my car does the same thing every so often, and I tried running 89 octane gas instead of 87 and the problem went away.
whether or not this was all in my head or whether the higher octance was helping, I don't know!
But thats my experience!

mine does this sometimes too. only happens if i drive it for five minutes or less, then start it soon after.

i doubt it has anything to due with octane rating. the lower the octane the more combustible the gas is.
