Have a 1997 GMC Jimmy. It started off just giving us trouble to start,?

But a good 5-10 minutes of cranking, and it would finally turn over, then it ran great, no stalls or anything at idle. The problem is only on the initial start. If you got it to start, ran around to the mall and stores,..no trouble with the subsequent starts, just the intial. Unless you let it sit overnight again and then the next morning, the intial start would be a problem again! Now, it won't turn over at all unless you give it a shot of ether, then it runs like a charm...sounds like its not priming itself.
