My 2005 Chevy Suburban starts fine the first start in the morning, but then you have to try 2 times before it starts after that.

To me it sounds like the fuel filter needs to be replaced. I would try that and see if it started and ran alot better.

did that help? i wouldn't think so. when a car acts up, first thing everyone wants to replace is the fuel filter. good way to sell TONS of fuel filters! you can test it first to see if it's restricted. symptoms usually are car bogs or wont go fast.
