Maybe someone else has experienced this problem?

DOHC with 248/248 set up. What's happening is when I go to start my car...it takes anywhere from 3 to 10 tries to get it started..and anywhere from like...20 seconds to a minute. Initially I thought it might be the timing because it almost cranks and then it just..doesn't. Ya know? Then I thought...what if it is the starter? Only..recently we had some unexpected warm weather and it started up almost completely effortlessly...then when the cold came back, it was back to the same...and recently It's been worse. So I thought maybe just the cold start issue was because of...well..cold weather. Now..when I get it started..it has to run for a few minutes before I drive, because if I just give it throttle..it stalls. And that is also fluxuating with the temperature...So the amount of time I run it to warm up depends on how cold it is outside... however...if I drive around, and park, and go do something for like 30 minutes..sometimes even an hour it starts right up and drives..

Anyone else have this or a similar issue?

It might be your battery? Not enough CCA?

id get your battery checked, if thats bad then replace it with a higher cca battery

I neglected to mention that I had a AAA battery guy come take a look and the CCA is on point. it's a relatively new battery, that was my first instinct but it regisereted what it said it puts out on the label.
