Need some help.

When i go out driving for about 30 mins and let it set for about 10 mins

and then go in the store or what not for about 15 mins

when i come back and try and start the car it wont start sometimes.

i crank it for about 5-6 seconds and it doesnt do anything

then i have to pull the EGI fuse out and crank it over for about 15 seconds then put it back in and it starts right back up

how do i stop that?

I would search the forum for flooding. Seems to be your issue.

hot start, leaky injectors or low compression.

compression should be perfect.
it was rebuilt about 2000 miles ago
new injectors so i dont think that should be it

once i get it started it runs fine

Definitely sounds like leaking injectors... how sure are you that they were replaced with new ones when the engine was rebuilt?

i'm positive it has new injectors
i even have recites for it
and honestly i'm not sure if it has a new housing i would think so
=/

i just dont understand why it only does it sometimes

like sometimes i'll drive for a while and i'll let it set for a while then i'll turn it off then leave


and then come back and it'll start right up

then other times i have to pull the EGI fuse and crank it a few times

yeah, fairly simple, i believe the one on the w/p housing is the one that controls the ecu events. not too sure on that though.
