I have a 2002 chevy corsica. The car runs good but when you shut it down it want start back up. But if you sit there an wait for about 5 minutes give or take a minute or two it will start up.I was wondering what could be causing this.

When the problem occurs, if it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it while you visually check for spark at the plugs. You can carry a known good spark plug or spark tester in your glove-box, it won't get hot. If the plug wires are hot, use a glove, pull plug wire off plug. Stick tester in the plug boot. Ground metal part of plug tester to metal part of engine. Watch for spark, engine cranking. Any applicable trouble codes?
