I have a 2003 Tribute. When I attempt to start mytruckabout 30 minutes after being parked from driving, its very difficult tostart. In other words,it doesn'tstart on the first turnof the key. It acts like it wants to start but hesitates. So, to get around the issue,I'm forced to do one of two things. I either have to let it sit for an extended period of time or Ihave to keep turning the ignition (about 15to 20 times)until it starts. Let me tell you this is very frustrating. I took the truck to a Mazada dealer,I was told there were no error codes being registered. So I drive the truck for acouple of days andthe issue returns. I took the truck to another replicable repair shop and was told the same thing. No error codes.But when I drive,the same issue appears. So I replaced the fuel pump thinking that would solve my problem. But no such luck.I've been reading about replacement of an Idle Air Control (IAC)valvepart. I'm wondering If anyone has experienced this same issue,if so, what was your resolution.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. [align=right][/align]
