When trying to start you have to turn the key on but not to start, wait a few sec. Then start it. Sometimes you have to turn it back and forth a couple times to get it to start. Once it starts you don't have any problems. PLus after you drive it some and shut it off, then come back a little later it will start up no problem. Thanks for the help.

Sounds like the fuel is bleeding back into fuel tank. You need to have a fuel pressure drop test performed. Also does the check engine light comeon and if it does what codes are you getting. Autozone will scan the computer for free.

My friend said he had a test done and they said it was good. They told him it was a fuel sensor but he's not sure what they called it. Thanks
