Default car not starting

ok so last night i went to start my car and it took about 5 minutes to do that. it would just keep turning over but not starting and it finally did. so this morning i thought maybe my coil is week so i put on my performance one that i just got still didn't help. and i checked my timing it was fine. its bumbed to 14 degrees. but when i take out my spout connector it starts right up. then i just put it in and it runs fine. what could be making my car not start if i don't take out the spout connector. and when i try and start it it sounds like it wants to fire but it won't.

Default RE: car not starting

personally leave the spout alone and in when trying to start........when it won't start check for spark and or fuel and see which one is not present then you can narrow down prob in that system from there
