Recently my car has taken along time to start. It will turn over for about 20 seconds and then start. It runs good but if you turn off the car it wont start again until the car has cooled back down. I know it is something with the fuel delivery just not exactly what. Please help as i need this car running normal again...soon. Also if you spray starter fluid in the intake it starts right away without a long cranking. Could this possibly be the choke or something?

Have the fuel pressure checked to see if it is getting the proper pressure. Also, it could be a plugged fuel filter.
