I am trying to trace a hard start problem on my 94 lesabre, it alsmot always start ont he second try but what could be the culprit? It never dies and once it warms it starts as normal until it has had time to cool off any ideas? thanks

I have had a similar problem with my 98 LeSabre. One place to look is the fuel pressure regulator.

I pulled the hose off of it and it does not leak would that be ruled out? thanks

Nope, that is just a vacuum hose. My 87 had that problem in hot weather after sitting 20 min, I had to wait till it cooled off. I replaced a lot of sensors, fuel pump, regulator, but the real cause was the radiator was clogged and was getting too hot.
