'94 850 will not start 850

Had the same thing once. Did plugs, rotor, dist cap, cam sensor, had no codes, etc. Talked with my indy and he suggested to just grind it for up to 2 minutes without stepping on the gas before I had it towed in.

Took over a minute for the first cough and about 1 minute 35 before it started and I let off the starter. The only thing I did was have another car jumping the battery as it ws low after all my failed attempts.

Nothing similar has happened in about 1 year & 40k miles.

Explained to me as one of those 850 quirks.
