94 ES won't start on first try..
My car is having starting issues lately and can't figure out if it's the starter motor, spark plugs, or fuel system related.
When I went to go start it today, I turn the key and it made one crank and completely stops. Then when I try the second time it starts up fine. I don't know if any of you have the same problem but feel free to share if you have/had the same problem!

As for the stripped allen try this. Find out what torx bit will fit into the allen head. Get the next size up and align it so it feels like it will strip but stopps with light force. Then tap the bit in carefully with a hammer and then you should be able to take the fastener out with the driver handle.
