This one is my work truck. We've been slow enough that I have had time to putz with it when I get a chance. It has not been a huge priority to get the truck done so it works out better this way. BTW, we are a small company.

I am not for sure. I changed the fuel filter which only had a few thousand on it anyway and still wouldn't start so I cracked the inj lines to check for fuel while cranking and after I did that it decided to start. Maybe some air in the line for some reason maybe............ Not sure but seems to be running good and starting so we will see what happens next time.
