Default Leaking injectors?

Hi to all,When I start my 85 in the morning cold it fires instantly,let it warm up shut it off when I restart the car it takes about 2 seconds of cranking,I changed the plugs all of them where wet,still does the same thing with new plugs,runs great just a little harder to start when warm,does this sound like leaking injectors? Thanks for any help. Dave

2 seconds to start is not bad for a 21 year old vette. but i do know what you mean, my 86 was doing the same thing and i just kept running fuel injection cleaner in every tank full till it got batter and it did! worth a try!!
