Belt squealing noise or like starter meshing w/ flywheel noise? Check your fuel pressure when it acts up.

takes 5 minutes to get started? You mean it takes 5 minutes for the squeling to go away? If thats the case, its prolly just a belt that needs to be replaced..

well the belt squeeling is either a loose belt or belt that needs changed.. or a loose belt that needs changed lol.. when you start it... does it like, start to crank then go into a very loud squeel and you have to try again?? if so your starter is probably shot..
