Well I've been searching here for a while. I have a 90' gsx, starts just fine when it's cold, but when I drive it for a bit, or when the engine reaches operating temperature, I shut the car down, and when I try to restart it, it cranks for a good 20 seconds, maybe more until it starts. Has a stumbling idle for a few seconds, but then it's fine.

So, in my searching I found info. on a similar problem that someone had on their 2g with a possible bad coolant temp. sensor or a failing fuel pressure soleoid. I also read the link from dsm.org on hard starts. I suppose Im just looking for a second and more opinions.

Any help would be great, thanks -Austin

Also, where can I purchase a fuel pressure solenoid? Maybe new or oem?
