    I have an 89 Volvo 760 turbo that just started to become hard to start
    yesteday. It does not seem to happen all the time but two out of four
    starts yesterday were very difficult ( I had to crank the engine about 6-10
    times) the other two times it started fine. All the starts were on a warm
    engine (not sitting longer than 4 hours). I am guessing fuel pump but it
    seems to run fine once I get going. What else should I be looking for?

    Thanks,

    Robert

    If it runs normally when warm then the fuel pump is probably fine. I think
    there's a checkvalve somewhere that maintains pressure when off, it could be
    leaking.
