Ok here whats my problem is. When cold takes about seven turns of the engine it sounds before it fires up. When warm still takes the engine to turn about 4 times over before it fires up.

I got brand new plugs,plug wires,clean the terminal on the coil, new module,fuel filter. Is it possible my ignition timing is off? I remember adjusting it about a year ago cant remember if I retarded it or advanced it...been a awhile. Ive tried turning the key on and off to build pressure with the fuel pump but it doesnt help...so Im thinking my fuel pumps not the problem...thats why Im leaning towards ignition timing...plus I remember all my sbc would react to igniton tuming and engine cranking over ....any help appriciated

Help me out...
