it started after i cleaned the injectors about 3 or 4 weeks ago. sometimes it starts right up, and sometimes it takes a little while.

When in doubt, start with the basics.
-Are you getting spark?
-Is there enough amperage to turn over the starter?
-Is the fuel pump working?

When you figure these out, hit me back..
