HELP!
My pickup is very hard to start. But seams to run just fine after it is fully warmed up.
Once I get it started I have to let it warm up to full operating temp before I can touch the throttle. I normally have to restart my pickup many times wile it is warming up. If I touch the throttle wile it is warming up it will die shortly after, Usually within 5-10 seconds. It has a brand new fuel filter, I cleaned the FPR screen, and just got my injectors back from Jim with about 100 miles on them now. So it cant be the injectors, or injector o rings. I'v talked to a couple people and they said maybe fuel pump, valve cover gaskets, Or the ICP sensor. Anyone have any ideas?

well it did this before i bought the injectors and iv put about 300 miles on it wile its been doing this and someone promissed me it was the injectors so i sent them to jim and its still doing it. so im sure after 300 miles the air would be out? but i do have a fuel leak on the banjo bolt i was told this could be the problem too. its had a leak since the day i bought it. i tightened the banjo bolt a couple months after i got it and it helped quite a bit and it still isnt leaking anymore then it ever has. its a verry small leak.

He said it could be LPOP, check the oil level in the HPOP res. He edited it with .............................. cause I said something stupid I guess.
