99 LS1 cranks but won't catch I've seen a couple of these threads here... My 99 Z28 sometimes will crank and crank when you turn the key but won't catch. Sometimes after 4 or 5 tries like this and it'll catch. When it does everything is fine - runs great, everything works. Other times, I turn the key, it fires right up - no problems. This is a recent problem, never saw this prior to October. Shop is having a hell of a time finding anything since its intermittant. I almost thought it was a cold weather thing since the first times it gave me problems was right when the weather started getting colder - early morning and late evening. Mid-day when it was warmer it didn't seem to have a problem. Had it out a warm day in November - never gave me a starting problem all day even making 4 or 5 different stops - that evening when the temp. dropped, it took 4 times to start. Hard to tell now since its not going above 50 all day.
