Ok I just bought a 1994 Firebird V6...I am having a starting issue...When it is cold I have to pump the gas a bunch of times while turning the key to get it to start. Once it is warm it starts easy with usual to no pumping of the gas. I changed out the spark plugs and still have the issue. Once running it drives great - no problems at all!
