Default Problem..2001 225TTQR. Twice in the last couple of months when trying to start the car, it just

turns over but won't start. Turn off key try again...just the starter turning the motor, but it won't start. Then 5-10 minutes later, it starts. Both times the engine was cold(outside temp 50 degrees). No problems the next time in the same conditions. Ideas?

Default could be a weak fuel pump?? try turning the key 2 or 3 times before starting and see if ...

it still does it. Its kind of hard cuz it sounds like a intermitent problem right? it really could be a lot of things but try that and see if any thing changes.

Default check fuel pressure

sounds like a fuel pump going out. Or perhaps just a fuel pump relay.
