possibly a weak fuel pump?

Was working on the gmc when I tthought I should start the nomad up for shits. Omg it took several seconds (plus another ignition key fuel prime) before she fired off. Run fine afterwards. That sign of a new fuel pump?

Oh, I have nothing of substance to contribute

My r6 is the same way. If I left the fuel pump run its cycle and then cranking it, it takes along cycle to start. After the initial start it starts right up with out hesitation. So the other day I didn't give the fuel pump a chance to prime and it fired right up. Doesnt make alot of sense to me.

Wtf... I just went outside and tried a quick start. Weird. It worked. Odd lol.

I almost wonder if the injectors don't leak a little causing a slight flooding issue?

[shumpertdavid]

A few seconds cranking on something that's been sitting a bit doesn't sound out of the ordinary. I wouldn't be too concerned about it.

Maybe the fuel drained back and needed a few seconds to repressurize? i notice my buggy acts the same when i pop the fuel lines off and work on it.

It sounds like you figured it out, but if it comes up again I have a good fuel pump off of an 04 Kaw meanstreak 1600. Im not sure if it s ithe same pump or not but you are more than welcome to it. I thought I had a bad pump but it turned out to be just a broken wire. So i spent almost $600 on a fuel pump I didnt need. I kept the old one but have since sold the bike and now have good pump I have no use for. I am prety far from highland villiage but gas to come out here is still a hell of a lot cheaper than a new fuel pump

[Tannerm]

Weeeeeell fuck a duck. I'm stranded at work! Lol... she is cranking over and over and no start. U can smell gas and the pump is priming. I assume something is wet? It covered in dew. Fuk...

[lincolnboy]

if you think its flooded switch off the fuel and start it.

It's fuel injected. No carb to flood tho.
