Cold start question for 95 coupe
I tried searching on this topic, but didn't get any returns.
Late last night, I went out and left the car in a parking lot for about 30 minutes, it was about 35 degrees outside. When I tried to start the car, it cranked for about 4-5 seconds, nothing. On a second try after about 4-5 seconds, it started OK. I never had this problem before, as I alway leave my car in the garage, so my car always starts right away.
Any suggestions as to what might cause this?
thanks in advance.

So this was a warm restart? Next time try opening the throttle all the way (clear flood mode). If it fires up after just a couple crank rotations and it's doing it all the time-then it sounds like leaking injectors......does it have a long crank warm restart all the time?

Both of mine have been starting no problem and lately we've had temps in the single digits.
