When I start it up, it turns over good, but it takes too long to start.30-40 seconds. The car runs great otherwise. Quiet, and smooth. When I drive it, and turn it off for a while, and re-start it, it just cranks for 30 seconds or more, then starts. What would cause this?

Hi there,

I would be starting with a good tune up and also check the coil voltages. A check on an oscilloscope will give a good overall picture of any ignition problems.
