Default 850 wont statrt at first wait 10 minutes then it does

Hey everyone happy new year
I have a 1996 850 glt and lately it has not been starting occasionally. but if i try 10 min or so later it starts right up. someone told me it may be the fuel filter but im not sure. any insight would be greatly appreciated

best thing to rule out fuel is to drain the fuel with engine off from the fuel rail. It looks like a tire nipple. take the pressure out (not much of a mess) and then turn the engine over a couple of time and check the nipple again to see if gas is present. If it is, then fuel delivery is not your problem.
