You need to have fuel and spark. Check that both are present during start-up. Since the truck is an older one I would be prone to suggest, maybe you need a new fuel filter and or fuel pump. The fuel line pressure needs to be over 33psi. Test to verify. Take a look at the maintenance history. When was the last tune-up. Also if the Crank pos. sensor was failing that too could cause a hard start.Well let me know how it goes and if I can help some more.

99 gmc sonoma 4.3 timing chain is it hard to do?

Its not the easiest Gm ever gave us. you have to remove the oil pan to get the front cover off and there is also a balance shaft that tends to make more noise after you do the timing chain. A lot of technicians end having to do it twice because of the noise after.

99 GMC sonoma will start with starting fluid then

The 99 GMC, when it acts up, check whether it has fuel and/or spark. It could be related to fuel pressure, available electrical power, ignition component/s.
