Starting in the morning

Chrysler PT Cruiser 2001  186000 miles
Hi everyone, I have a PT Cruiser 2001 and it is really hard to start the vehicle in the mornings. The engine needs to be powered many times and the accelerator pressed hard until it finally starts. Sensors, spark plugs and even fuel pump have been changed but the starting in the mornings is still a huge trouble for me. Has somebody had this problem and can please tell me what to do? Thanks

You should check the passage of gas valve, which needs to be cleaned and this is not indicated by the scanner. You might as well need to change the gas hoses, located behind the throttle body, which usually get damaged. The same happened to me with my PT 2001 and I also cleaned the injectors in order for it to respond properly and it is now working alright. Hope it solves your problem.
