I've posted before about how if i autostart my car that it wouldn't star off the first go and many had said that it is just not enough pressure.

Not a new problem has come up that i'm a bit concerned about. when i try to auto-start sometimes it will fire but i guess there isn't enough pressure so it won't start completely. so it'll kinda start and stop but the power will turn on not the engine. so my compustar tells me it's started but it really isn't and the power is goign without the engine going. before it woudl realize right away that the engine isn't going and just fire it again and all woul d be well. now it doesn't and just tells me my ccar is running when only the power is.

you all can see the problem in this i'm sure. If my car starts and my engine isn't running but my speakers lights and everythign else is on. It's gonna be a problem i think it's on and then come out with a dead battery.

What's the problem here?


Thanks for any help!

I'm gonna go with compustar on this one
my old starter knew when the car was started by reading a tach signal... i'm assuming the compustar works the same way.

Take it back to wherever you got it installed and get them to fix it for good
