My 240 just started not wanting to crank, once it does it runs rough for 30 seconds to 60 seconds, then seems fine...but i smell gas like its rich?
also when i stop for a short bit and turn the car off like half an hour it does not want to crank up and i smell gas even more.

i have no leak that i can see or find?
i replaces the relay that controls the fuel pump at start up?
thank
wes
