Fuel Pressure on Cold Start

[Mightyhorse]

I have a 95 Tahoe with 5.7. If I try to start the engine cold it can crank for several seconds (10 to 15) before it will start.

If I turn the key on and wait about 10 seconds before cranking, it will fire right off after a couple of cranks.

I don't have a problem doing this, but I was looking at getting a remote starter for next winter and I'm afraid I'll burn up a starter in short order.

I figure I am losing the fuel in the fuel lines overnight as I have changed the fuel filter to make sure that isn't the problem.

What should I check next?

Get a starter that has a delay before start for prime..... Or possible fuel pump getting weak, waht is your fuel pressure at?
