Crank and crank and crank...finally starts. Continue driving, hesitates momentarily again, then smooths out on its own and drives fine. Park it, try starting it later, no bueno. Crank and crank and crank. Just about when I'm ready to give up it finally catches and starts. Runs fine all the way to the mechanic. Long story short, mechanic can't find anything wrong. Thinks it might be MAF but can't say for sure.
Any thoughts?

I had something similar recently with my 93. Ended up that the resistance in the distributor was WAY off when the engine was all the way warmed up. Had to replace it.
Cold start - no problem
Hot start - took a lot of cranking, and key turning before she would fire. Run rough for a while before evening out.
Hope this helps. At least it gives you a starting point.
