Cranks but doesn't start w/o ether, once the

Yes! After putting ether in it I do push in the gas pedal. It will start after a couple trys, once the engine is warm it will restart without using the ether.

Yes! The car will start with ether! And runs great. Yes the coolent temp sensor was replaced. The check engine light has been on for over a year. A mechanic has my car, and he says that he was stumped! I've had 5 mechanics look at it, it's been on a diagnosic machine several times......not sure what codes it's stored. Was grasping at straws.

No, it will not start without ether....I just talked to one of the mechanics, he said no codes show up?
