Hi, well first thing that I'd check- cold start injector, it might malfunction, I assume it happens on morning starts. If not this, then ignition switch. It could happen that while in starter position, it looses the ignition contact and you crank and crank until unavail. And when you release key from starter position it catches the ignition back (its the wire 15 in diagrams), and if engine is still rotating by inertia- it sometimes catches and starts. More, still there can be ground problems, I'd check the voltage on ignition coil while cranking the engine. Well, what else, do you hear fuel pump buzzing for a second when turn ignition on? Dunno, maybe its worth to look into bentley, but I cant help you there. Anyway, tell what it was.
