In the last week or so, it cranks for 2-3 seconds before starting whereas it used to start immediately. I installed a new starter 6 months ago as you all may recall. I also installed a K&N fuel filter 10 month ago. No issues until last week.

Research online and on FRRAX is pointing to a fuel pump or fuel pressure regulator. Or the battery. Or the spark plugs.

Car runs super fine once started and starts right up once it has been running. If it sits 6+ hours, it'll revert to needing extra time.

Suggestions?

Dropping the tank isn't the worst job ever assuming you get the car high enough off the ground. You pretty much have to pull the rear end, I've done it while keeping the control arms and torque arm connected but it made maneuvering the tank a royal pain. With the torque arm pulled from the transmission and the control arms straight down you should have enough room to manage the tank easily. Don't forget to loosen the brake hard line from the body so it drops enough.

I'm horrible at guestimating time, so 4 hours is a very rough estimate.

Also, if you have the plastic has tank the regulator is in the tank instead of on the fuel rail.
