Or try a quick diagnosis.  If it cranks because
there's too MUCH fuel in combustion chambers, most
likely injector leak-down.  No?  If OTOH it's because
it's waiting for the fuel system to repressurize, then
I would suspect check valve.  On my 200, I could
see/smell the fuel in some cylinders, and you could
certainly tell at the tailpipe.
