What could be causing my Toyota ractis to crank a lot before starting? It has a 2SZ-FE engine

    Not quite clear. Could you please specify your problem?

    A faulty fuel pump or clogged fuel filter can reduce the fuel pressure, making it hard for the engine geometry dash to start. If the fuel injectors are dirty or malfunctioning, they may not be supplying enough fuel to the engine during startup.

    Reduced fuel pressure, caused by a malfunctioning fuel pump or a blocked fuel filter, makes starting the engine difficult. Inadequate fuel supply to the engine during beginning could be caused by unclean or defective fuel injectors.

    If the fuel pump is weak or the fuel filter becomes restricted, the incredibox engine may experience low fuel pressure and struggle to start; likewise, contaminated or failing injectors can prevent the proper amount of fuel from reaching the combustion chamber during ignition.

    There could be a problem with the fuel pump, fuel filter, or fuel injectors, leading to insufficient fuel reaching the engine during startup drive mad 3.

    If the CKP sensor is slow to signal, the ECU won’t trigger spark and fuel immediately.

    Symptoms

    Long crank, especially when hot

    Sometimes random stalling

    No check-engine light in many cases google

    Based on experience with this engine:
    Replace fuel pump + strainer (biggest success rate).
    Clean throttle body and run fuel system cleaner.
    Replace crankshaft position sensor if the issue is intermittent.
    Check battery and starter. Fun with Geometry Dash
    Replace spark plugs (engine idles better immediately).
