Default 2000 Si starting problem

My '00 Si seems to crank a little longer than normal when I have less than a 1/2 tank of gas. Anyone else have this problem? Anything to worry about? I normally dont have less than a 1/2 tank but sometimes shit happens.

My 92 DX never had this problem. BTW I use premium gas in it at all times and Iso-Heet on cold nights (which seems to help a lot). Car just turned 30k miles and is never ran to hard.

Do you prime the fuel pump before you start it?

Exactly Thanks Timmy You should hear the fuel pump hum and then it will cut off. h:
