Ok car doesnt wanna start on cue. Takes about 5 or 6 spins for it to start... think its the low resolution of the opti or is it something else?

Could be opti. I would check fuel pressure first. Much cheaper than an opti :) Another thing you can do is have some one crank the car wile you watch for spark, and listen for the injectors to pulse. If you notice that the spark or injector pulses are delayed then I would lean twards the opti...

Check fuel psi first and when was the last time you changed the fuel filter? The look at the opti harness, if thats good have a friend help you and check for spark at the coil and on random cylinders while the problem is occurring.

Yeah. I am gonna check the fuel. And replace the fuel filter. Just figure its the opti due to the fact about 2 yrs ago or so i got it wet. And its taken this long before something started acting up. Once its started it runs great!! But its the starting thata the issue.
