hard to start
I have a 1990 F150 with 302 PS, PB and I am have two starting problems that I need to fix.
1) The key is hard to turn when it is real cold (live in Ontario, Canada) it is real stiff and needs a lot of force to turn key and it won't always return back to the run position as the day warms up it better but still stiff any suggestions are welcome.
2)After I have run the truck for awhile and it warms up when I shut it down to go into the store etc. and I come back when I go to resart it sometimes it almost sounds like it won't start. It turns over but it is real hard to crank almost sounds like the battery is dead then it ignites and away we go does this sound like it is the starter? I have a new Battery in the truck and the alternator is chrging
