My daughter's 90 245 (120k)is getting harder to start. She says that it turns over about the same speed, but just takes longer to start than before. This happens whether the engine is cold or at running temperature. Once it starts, it runs fine. She will be home tomorrow and wants me to take a look at it. I'm wondering if it's losing fuel pressure every time it sits a bit and is having to build up pressure at every start. But that's just one idea. I'm sure there are many other possibilities. Any advice to help me prioritize things to check would be very much appreciated.
