Does it turn over with the starter fine? It sounds like a lack of fuel and/or air. Check the air filter and intake to see if it's clogged or blocked. Also, your fuel pump may be on deaths door hence why it is taking a long time to start, it has to build pressure and the pump being weak could result in that.
