[Shotimes] Polling List.......I am curious

[Donald Mallinson]

The car should start without touching the gas pedal, and it 
should start within just a few turns of the engine (one second?)

The only time I don't accomplish this is if I release the 
key too soon, and then the engine is partly flooded, and it 
takes a few more cranks to get it going.

Hard starting could be a cam sensor, or low fuel pressure. 
My son's car was getting hard to start all the time, and it 
was a bad pressure valve in the fuel pump in the tank made 
worse by a bad crank sensor.  Both replaced, the car is like 
new again (as far as starting up!).
