start up times

i was wondering if this is normal or not.the cold start time seems kinda long

cold start 2.7sec
warm start 1.5 sec
hot start .8 sec

cold start isnt realy cold since its 97*f outside
warm start is after it sits for about 1-2hrs same ambient
hot start is restart within minutes of shut down

My cold,warm, and hot start...

Usually by time I can let go of the key from cranking it's running.

Turn the key for half a second and it's running.

Look at your FICM voltages.

Here are the xgauges for the FICM voltages....

FICM Vehicle Power (Volts) (Should be 12 Volts, should not drop below 10.25 for more than 60 seconds, or 9.0 for 4 seconds. TSB 09-24-03)

TXD: 07E02209CE

RXF: 0462450906CE

RXD: 3010

MTH: 006401000000

NAM: FVP

FICM Logic Power (Volts) (Should be 12 volts)

TXD: 07E02209CF

RXF: 0462450906CF

RXD: 3010

MTH: 006401000000

NAM: FLP

FICM Main Power (Volts) (Should be 47-48) Your FMP should never dip below 45. If it does, your FICM is toast and needs repaired or replaced.

TXD: 07E02209D0
