Any smoke when you try to turn it over

nope no smoke no missing or anything when running. on stock tune it seem a little low on power but its been so long since its been on stock hard to tell.

Need to get it scanned. Long crank, could be something related to the HPOP system, but it would be just guessing. How are the fuel filters?
