Unhappy hard starting

My 2006 ford f-250 super duty 6.0 diesel has started to have a hard starting problem, when first started it takes longer than usual to start, but when warmed up seams to work fine till next morning.

I had the same issue, and it would run rough till up to temp. I used Rev X on Friday and it is amazing at what it does. Starts easy and runs like a champ even when not up to temp. I would definitely try it. Two bottle needed and it cost me $65.00 for the two.

I was having this problem as well, Rev-X works wonders...well worth the $65 IMO. Do you have white smoke when you get it started in the morning? I was having that problem as well and had to replace the FICM. Mine got to the point where it would not start at all cold.
