Starting Problem - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

I have a 92 chevy burban with the stock 350 TBI. Right now when I start it it takes sometimes about 3-4 seconds of cranking till it fires. I was having stater problems too and I replaced the starter with a gear reduction starter. I tested the battery leads and the ignition wire to the solenoid. The battery leads had no voltage drop, but the wire to the solenoid had a .5 volt drop. I haven't checked the cap and rotor yet due to my work and school schedule. The time delay varies day to day and start to start. Sometimes it fires right up and sometimes it lags. Any ideas? Thanks,

Paul

Why not throw a tune up on it. New cap, rotor, fuel filters etc.
