AND yes this is in the manual somewhere
I thought the car ran for a bit after was to ensure the turbo completely unspooled as the clutches disengage when u come to a stop or put in park. That is the reason for the slow go from a dead stop(clutches need time to engage).

This happens to me ever so often. Just try once or twice. Always gets going. I have a 2009. My friend has a 2010 same problem. It happens a few times a year. Just consider it normal if its only a few times.

Hmmb... I have had an issue where the car would fail to crank over, but always did on the second try. Last night when I came back from my trip I tried to see if the car would crank over and it did. This morning I went to go to work and it didn't start up.

Naturally I blamed the battery and swapped it for a much better one, but I still can't start the damn thing =( It just cranks but its like there is no fuel in the lines.

Any ideas?

Are you parked on an incline with the front end raised when you have this issue?

This works no problems since doing this

Nope. Was on a completely flat surface. Though since then I have solved the problem. Had flooding in my chamber due to a start which happened the day before for a few seconds.

I am trying to pump the E85 out of my tank but I can't get the pump to turn on upon turning the key to the ON position. The car has been down for quite a while and I am thinking I missed a connector but I double checked and it looks like they are all plugged in. Judging from the above comments it sounds like there is some kind of tilt sensor. I know the CAS and both Cam sensors are plugged in and should be fine since 2 out of 3 are new. I did get rid of that plate that the big relays mount to. Yes, I clamped off the return line to get the pump to try and pump the gas out.
If the battery voltage is to low would this cause the pump not to come on?
Any help is appreciated.
