starting problems (part 2 long & desperate)

Hi,
My '92 900 still shows the 3-5 secs of cranking before starting (cold or warm do difference).
So battery, sparks, HT leads, rotor, cap etc are all fine.
Checked the FPR and the fuel pressure.
But what I found out, is that when I crank the engine 2-3 seconds and stop just before it 'should' jump and then immediately restart it jumps right on (turn the key and wroamn!!!)... so my guess was fuel pump or check valve.
So I bridge wired the fuel pump to continuous power and tried starting... but still seconds before it starts.... but if I do the cranking stopping and cranking trick it again jumps right on?????
What could be causing this???? I am getting real confused here. All the basics are there... fuel, spark etc.
Am I overlooking something?
So far checked, vacuum lines (over and over again)... AMM, amplifyer, sparks, FPR, Fuel pump, checkvalve, coil, rotor, cap, AIC valve....
Should I be thinking of a faulty ECU... or the fuel injection system????
Please some help here.... (almost thinking of bringing it to the dealer...)
