looking for some help. please,,,,lately when i try to start my vert. it turns over but dosent start. usually takes 5 or more turns of the key for it to start up. once it starts all is perfect. not sure what it could be , but when it is warmed up. and i have to restart. it fires right up.
 
Have you changed your fuel filter lately. I would start with the fuel delivery system. When you shut off your car the fuel pressure bleeds off over time, perhaps your fuel pump is not working correctly. When the car is hot, the fuel system is already pressurized. This is just a food for thought.

Good Luck,
Craig
 
Check your fuel pump relay. Helms should have a good test to go through to get you on the road again. Basically if you turn the key over and don't hear the pump running for a few seconds than the relay is suspect.
