97 Ford f350 crew cab 7.3 powerstroke problem.

Hi need some advice. OK here is the story on it. A couple months ago truck stop running. So ended up having to change the hpop and I went ahead and changed the IPR and the oil lines. While I hadcfuel bowl out cleaned it and replaced some of the o rings because there was about a 1/16'inch on dirt in the bottom. So got it all back together and got it running. But the problem is it is hard to start. It has to roll over quit a few times. What would cause that??? Thanks Tony

I had the same issue when I replaced my lines. In the words of another person on this thread, drive it like you stole it for a couple hundred miles. It should get better every time you crank it.

Hahaha maybe that's the new buzz-phrase - "drive it like you're renting it"!
