  1. First off, stop using the high octane fuel as it is doing absolutely nothing for your vehcle and is only draining your wallet. Now when you say takes a while to turn over do you mean that when you turn the key the engine doesn't crank or you turn the key, the engine cranks but takes a few seconds to start....

     

     

    The engine cranks and will turn over but takes a while. I read in the manual that high octane gas is not good for the engine it is designed for regular gas and could cause starting, knocking and running rough. I should of read this before hand. I hope this is all it is the tank is almost empty and going to go back to 87. I also notice sometimes when going into reverse or drive it goes into gear hard. I spoke with someone else with the same year edge and she is feeling the same thing. I am going to try to find out if there is any TCB's about that problem. Other than that it runs great. Getting ready to take a 13 hour road trip and the starting issue is making me a little nervous.

  2. I have a 2010 Ford Edge and have noticed an intermitent problem when starting. Usually it starts right up, but sometimes after the engine is warm and I have parked for about 20 minutes or so I go to start the car and it takes a few more seconds for the engine to turn over. It is really hard to describe but don't think this is normal. Has anyone else experienced this? I have been using high Octane gas in it, I don't know if this could be doing it.
