93 3.0 starting issue
I have a 93 with a 3.0.
I just replaced the intake manifold gaskets and now it cranks and cranks before it will start when cold and worse as it gets colder out.
New antifreeze,coolant sensor.
Started fine before the job,no other changes,everything is hooked back up and right.
Fuel pressure good,has spark.
Anyone experience this?

'Ever since I fixed my car... it's broke'. you must have missed something. first why did you replace the intake gaskets, I rarely hear of them going bad? I know that one could make an error in installing the gasket not only backwards but they slip out of position very easily. try spraying carb cleaner around the gaskets once it's started. if idle speed changes, you found your problem.

Must be reverse magic. worked fine before you fixed it and now it doesn't. Well I'll ask you another stupid question. any chance you mixed up the fuel line if you took them off? I know you're going to say no, but since we can't see what you did, and can't look at your car, all we can do is ask you stupid questions!!

Well knowing I did not mess up,I tried a map sensor,no change,then a throttle position sensor,big change,starts a lot better(maybe it got bumped to hard,maybe a bad connection ?).
It used to start in one or less revolution,now about two full revolutions to start,I can live with that,but I will play with it a little more,maybe the oil/oil pressure switch.
