Fuel problem maybe?
You're throwing 16 and 36. And he got a bad PCM out of that equation. While not impossible, it seems rather improbable. IMHO I still suspect the OPTI. The car starts and runs. The PCM communicates with your scanner. I fail to get a bad PCM out of the equation. Bump... anyone?
Yea im pretty sure its not my pcm i can connect with tunerpro and i was able to scan it. Im pretty sure my opti is to blame here. Although i still dont know whats up with the pump priming twice.

The GM guys said it was the distributor.. so Opti? Where can I get one for a decent price? They want to charge me $1300 for parts and service. I figure I'll just buy the part somewhere and fix it with some friends..

According to this thread, Chandler isn't the best brand. They have had a lot of DOA optis. Anyone else have an opinion of a better option?

it might be the fuel pump. even with the noise that the fuel pump is making i had the SAME SAME SAME identicle problem and when i put new fuel pump it stoped doin it completely. but the rest of these guys on here have valid opinions as well.

My car is what seems to be in the early stages of this. I'm pretty sure its the vent in the fuel pump, its fine on a cold start but on a hot start it cranks for around 5 secs before starting. The vent isnt holding pressure once the pump has turned off. If I let the car set for a couple minutes it will do it on a hot start, however if I turn it straight off and straight back on it fires right up. Pretty sure its the vent.
Where did you get it? I did a price check at my local dealer and they wanted $717.00. The entire parts department/service area was privileged to hear a big "**** THAT!" from me.
