Default my '89 90Q is cranking long.. Give it gas to start

After it starts idle is smooth.
I just redid the timing and the cars power is back! It's running great.
I have a new fuel filter, only 2 months old. Everything is new. It's not cold, I dont think it's the cold start realy unless it's leaking? What should I look for. I checked the archive and they mentioned the check valve, where is that located?

Thanks,

Default

leaky fuel injectors/seals, vacuum leak (check all hoses), and coolant temp sensor.

Default After the car is started it idles smooth... Just the starting part.

You think the injectors are leaky? Could the cold start valve be leaking as well? When I put my foot on the gas to start it, it starts right away? Coolant temp sensor can cause that eh?

Default P.S. all vacuum hoses are new. 2 to the ISV, 2 to the intake manifold!

Are there any more?
