It is most likely a leak in you fuel system. Quite possibly the fuel pump check valve. The valve costs a few bucks and screws into the fuel pump. What I do is turn the key on and off really quick and it cycles the fuel pumps. THe pumps dont cycle with one turn of the key for some reason. After I do that, she starts in like 1 turn of the engine, even in cold weather. If I dont cycle the pumps, it takes 5-6 turns to start. The problem could be anywhere in the high pressure side of the fuel system. Could also be the cold start valve but doubtful. I would start by replacing the fuel pump check valve and see if that does it.
