If I rev up (2,000-3,000rpm) my car before I shut it off. When I go to start it up next time usually have to crank two to three times before it wants to start?
88mustang92, my '03 has done what you described. When it does occur, it will only do it on a warm engine when restarting it after a couple minutes. As for starting it first thing in the morning or after work, the thing jumps to life quickly with no hint of anything odd. Just likes to act up occasionally when already warm. Also, mine doesnt take as long as you say yours does to start, but it is a noticable delay and does it with a weak sounding buzzing noice until it does crank over the engine. Hard to describe.
This is not a normal condition, it is a maintainance issue.
A Mustang will start instantly unless there is a problem that needs to be fixed.
My 98 with new filter plugs/wires/battery all that, was ALWAYS a two crank betty. I had to crank it once for a second turn the key off and do it again, Just how it was.
