Here is the gasket I purchased.

It is starting to sound like an issue that really can't be fixed. It's not that big of a deal. But can be annoying at times. I have read that todays fuel is different than gas thirty years ago. I'll still try "dano" idea about taking the gas cap off after a drive. Worth a shot. As far as cylinder pressure readings I don't have the tools so I am not sure what they are. If I go to get gas, pump, walk in and pay come out to start it almost always fires up. It's just after a period of time like 10 minutes or more. The car runs great. I was just expecting a lot from the heat gasket I guess. If I don't find a solution i'll just do as "MOPEkidD-3" suggested for when starting and go from there. I'll keep this post updated. I usually take the car out on weekends and i'll see what my findings are.
Thanks again everyone.
