Question 1993 Ford F-350 7.3L non-Turbo Starting Problems

Once in a while the truck will not start for the first time, however when I turn the key after glow plug light goes out she fires right up....


Brand new starter, glow plugs... The only think I can think of is the diesel glow plug relay...


Lost on this one... Also I hear no click the first time it acts up???


Any help would be great!

that is normal. on a cold engine you need to wait for the glow plug light, or wait to start light to go out before the engine will start.
