CAR WILL SLOW CRANK RANDOMLY, IT DOES IT COMPLETELY INTERMITTENT, EVEN WHEN ITS COLD OR HOT, THE FUEL PUMP WORKS PERFECTLY, THE STARTER IS NEW, IT HAS NEW CRANK AND CAM SENSORS, THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR ARE IN WORKING FINE, THE SPARK PLUGS AND IGNITION COILS ARE BRAND NEW, IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS SINCE I FIRST BOUGHT IT, IT HAD 148,000 MILES, SOMETIMES I HAD TO PUSH THE KEY TWICE OR MORE, THE ENGINE WILL CRANK WITH THE STARTER BUT WILL SIMPLY NOT TURN ON, AFTER I DO IT TWICE OR MORE THEN IT STARTS, I HAVE TRIED EVERY TRICK IN THE BOOK TO SEE IF IT STOPS HAPPENING RANDOMLY, I JUST WANT THIS CAR TO WORK FINE OR JUST NOT WORK AT ALL, I DONT LIKE THIS GAME. I HAVE HAD OVER THREE PROFESSIONAL MECHANICS TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND NOBODY KNOWS WHAT IT IS, IT JUST DOES IT WHENEVER IT WANTS. NO MATTER THE WEATHER OR ENGINE TEMPERATURE OR VOLTAGE OR FUEL PRESSURE,
