FD no start

Okay guys i got a problem with my fd. When the car is cold it leftover night or 24 hours it start and run fine until the next time i turn it off and leave it off for about 10 mins it wont start agian. When it does happen there is a wierd noise that comes from the intake manifold area. Tach also still bounces.

Hot start problem? Check your compression.

It could also be flooded, search for how to do the de flooding procudure.

Does the car turn over? Your last post confused me. Try doing a compression check first. There is a good guide here:

When you remove your plugs take good look at them and compare them to a chart like this:

Also try explaining the problem in greater detail.
