Gas starved start? 20 seconds before starting? (archive)

Just added a 80 320i to the fold. It takes 20 seconds before the darn thing wants to start. It seems it takes that long to get any gas to turn over, but once its there, it seems to run fine. Can anyone tell me what I might look for that causes the hesitant start? I think that it is gas starved for 20 seconds befor gas gets the gas to the combustion chambers.
Thanks,
Craig
