It turns over very well but takes about 3-4 times of cranking before it starts if it hasn't been running for 30 min or so.

Possibly fuel pressure regulator failing or a fuel injector stuck open while vehicle is turned off. Check your oil. Does it smell like gas? If so you have an injector issue.

Mine wont start when its cold but start right up once its warm. I checked for spark and injecter pulse when its cold and no fire or injector pulse. but if I crank on it long enough, it will start! I think its the coil inside the distrib.
