How long are we talking? A few seconds or longer? I'd say up to two seconds would be considered normal.

 

[215Robert]

Longer probably 7 to10 seconds

Bad fuel pump relay maybe.. In that case it wouldn't start until you have oil pressure. Can you hear the fuel pump prime when you cycle the key on?

 

[215Robert]

Yes you can hear it cycle

If you have verified fuel pressure and inj pulse then do a spark test.

Thanks everyone. Think it may have been a low voltage issue caused by a bad cell in the battery I'll keep you posted
