Why is my Toyota Prius not starting properly?
At first i thought it was my ignition coil because the hard starting was intermittent and i ran a test on it and the Primary Resistance was way off spec, but the Secondary Resistance was spot on. So beings that it was out of spec i would replace it anyway even if it wasn’t the cause of the problem.

How does the cold start injector work on a Toyota?
The cold start injector most certainly works at temperatures above 32deg. The cold start injector time switch provides a ground circuit for the injector that allows the injector to spray fuel during cranking to help start the engine. The time it allows the fuel to spray is based on what the temperature is.

Why does my car run after I start it up?
One potential problem that could arise is the inability to control the fuel injection system correctly. This might cause problems keeping the car running after you start it up.
What causes a car to start at the wrong time?
Spark plug wires are a source of electromagnetic interference (EMF), but this is usually only a problem on some aftermarket setups when this interference isn’t taken into account. A timing belt or chain that has skipped a tooth will throw off the cam timing, causing the intake and/or exhaust valves to open at the wrong time.
What does it mean when your car won’t start?
If this time you see a spark or no spark, you have a problem in the ignition system. Consult your vehicle repair manual for your particular model for further diagnosis. Depending on your particular model, you may have a problem with an ignition coil, distributor, ignition module, igniter, or some other related component.
What should I do if my engine won’t start?
You should see a bright spark jumping the gap in the spark tester. If you don’t see a spark, repeat the test. This time, adjust the spark tester to 30KV. If you still don’t see a spark, repeat the test and set the tester to 10KV. If this time you see a spark or no spark, you have a problem with the ignition system.
