Nice...you're saying to wait for the fuel pump to cycle right? I was thinking that too and tried that as well...but it didn't make a difference. Not to mention the fact that we shouldn't have to do that. The EX starts right up...and the SI used to when I first bought it. So why not now ya know?

I don't feel like taking it in again though...I'll probably wait a bit and see if it gets worse. I just hate having to crank it twice sometimes when it's a brand new car.
