Default Hot Start Issue

I have a 1994 Camaro Z28.

In the past few months there has been an on going problem with my car starting. In the mornings or if its cold outside the car will start up quickly with no issues. However, once I get to where I am going and the car sits for a few hours when I go to start it the motor has to turn over 5-6 times before it fires. Seems like it is a fuel issue but I can not find anything wrong.

However, putting the pedal to the floor before starting does not seem to do any good. Also the coolant temp sensors both tested good and accurate.

The car started fine before but it seems this problem popped up after I developed an exhaust leak where the y-pipe bolts to the manifold. Once that exhaust leak happened is about when this problem started for me. I have since fixed that issue but the problem is still there. Not sure if that has something to do with the issue I am having or not.

Any idea would be appreciated.

Thanks

I have the same problem but mine start after a clutch change. I posted on here but so far nobody has helped me out. Beats me.
