if i try to start the car and it takes a while to start this is a list of things ive done to me car

new timing belts and tentioner

new oils
new spark plugs and wires

can someone tell me how to figure this out thanks
 
Coolant temp sensor when it goes bad it tells your ECU its like -42 degrees outside and it adds a ton of fuel. So if it cranks and cranks and finally starts I would look into that. Maybe a wire is broke or something.
