| |  Waiting to start
The 2000 grand is getting hard to start.In the mornings I have to turn the key on for about 15 seconds to get it to start.If you dont she turns over and over before cranking.Just started this about 3 weeks ago.Think it could be the fuel pump bleeding down over night???

Could be, check with a pressure meter what it reads.
I suspect the CPS. Does it idle kind of rough also?

Next time before trying to start - cycle the key on and off 3 times - leave it on 3 seconds, turn it off, then on 3 secs, then off and on again - 3 times.
If it starts fine now it could be the fuel draining back, if still starts hard, it's something else - like CPS, old plugs etc.

Once running it idles and runs great.That sorta what I do now ,I turn the key on for about 5 seconds before starting and it starts fine.But if I get in it and try to start it turns over and over.
