Default 1990 Hard starting - fuel Problem?

I have 90 7up with 75,000mi. Recently, when starting, the engine cranks more and more before it starts. Once it starts, it runs great...good acceleration etc., but shut it off for a few minutes and it does the same thing. It seems almost like fuel is draining back to the tank. What should I look for?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Check for fuel pressure and spark. Is the car throwing any codes? Also, when was your last tune up done? Are the battery terminals clean?
