Hello Chad, and welcome to the MF. Question for you, if you wait until the fuel pump shuts down does it crank right up then?

I know on my 90 5.0 if it sets a while like several days or sometimes weeks before I crank it up, I always wait until the fuel pump stops running and it cranks right up. I do not think it is a problem if the car has been sitting for a long time, but should not do it over night. Fuel regulator would be my guess if it is a problem. Good luck.
