Nissan Repair: 05 Nissan starting trouble, rich mixture, service engine soon light

Question
My Sentra has almost 60,000 miles.  Sometimes it's hard to start about 3 out of 10 starts give me trouble. also my service engine soon light came on, Any ideas?

Answer
Hi Dani -

Question - When was the last tune up you had? When the car finally starts up, how does it run at idle?, up hills?

The check engine light is on probably because there is a rich mixture due to the car having a hard time to start.

Get back to me and we will get to the bottm of this.

Aloha
