Starting issue lately
Hey guys, So my 95 has been takin longer to start the last week or so. It used to fire up right after hitting the key, lately, it has been a struggle to get it to turn over. Sometimes half way through the crank, it will sputter like its gonna catch and then it catches about a second or two later. I haven't looked into it yet but i wanted to throw this out there and see if anyone has had the same issue or has any advice on where to start looking. Tach bounces and no smoke out the tailpipe (never had smoke except on cold starts) It just seems like its taking sometimes up to 4 or 5 seconds to get it started.
Thanks guys, i appreciate all the help.

Not sure, I haven't done it in the 5k that ive owned it. Not sure if they were done before this. But the truck started fine up until a week ago. Would orings change the startup time basically overnight like that?

It romps on every start up, cold or hot. And when i read a thread on here about the trs, iirc when you put it in neutral and the problem goes away, thats your issue, well mine didn't go away so i think that wasn't the problem. I'm beginning to think injector orings is the culprit.
