Well, I've seen that too. Heat can expand stuff and help it seal too...

Great point^^^ Cheezit things do Expand and contract Hot & Cold & Leak and Seal
IIRC the original complaint was Trouble with Hot Starts and Cold Starts OK
Hope when he does the next test he will get EOT to 190* maybe he did this time IDK

Drove it hard and pulled it directly intop my shop. We had it plugged in and reading in about 3 minutes. No time to cool down. The hot start problem was happening 10-15 minutess after turning it off. So we were in the window.
Now here is the weird part. Ever since giving it the 30% command it has started every time. I've drove it just like I usually do, started at least 10 times today after that. No hesitation.
Where do I go from here?

Just in case anyone is subscribed to the thread or is otherwise interested in the results here you go;
3 months of dependable starts hot and cold. Then one day, Gotcha! Hot no-start. Let it cool for about an hour and fired right off. Got it back to my shop and we rolled the dice on the IPR. No luck. While at the dealer buying a new IPR one of the Powerstroke mechanics gave me the word on the standpipe plugs. At $20 each I figured what the h__ and bought a pair. Good thing 'cause it was not the IPR. Can anyone see where this is going? Yes, torn "O" ring on the right side plug. About 5 hours of labor and $40 of upgraded plugs and we are fixed.
Moral of the story; buy a Chevy, no sorry, replace the plugs with the upgrade they will probably fail sooner or later.
