Re: Cold start after sitting all night
Possibly coolant leaking into a cylinder overnight from faulty head gasket?

Primary o2 sensor could be on the way out, or maybe coolant temp

Should have mentioned car only has 50,000 miles on it but maybe I'll multimeter test the sensors in any case.Thanks

Re: Cold start after sitting all night
Do you think a fuel pump check valve going bad could cause this?

No. I think a faulty check valve would only cause extended cranking before starting.
