HPO Leak?

I've been chasing a hard starting (long Crank) problem for a while now. Had the FICM rebuilt by Ed along with the Atlas 40 tune. Starting did get better and the voltage stays dead on 49 all of the time. Last week I changed over to the winter oil I run. (CAT 0-40W synthetic). Ever since I changed the oil (Using ford filter and factory cap) The truck has been hard starting when it's warm. Thinking I have a High pressure oil leak that is bleeding down with the thinner oil once it is warmed up to operating temp. Starts withen 2 sec's when it's cold. Just took 4 cranks @ 10 secs each to get it going. Any suggestions?

Starts cold, hard start warm, is an indication you have a leak in the HPO system.

Not yet. I'm trying to find the code for it. Figured I should take the reading during normal running and during a no start time.

Rusty or Benny can cut and paste them quicker than I can type them. Icp should be 580 psi at idle

I found the addresses for ICP and ICPV. Do I take the readings at KOEO,Cranking, Low idle and high idle (2500 rpm) during a cold start? The only reading I could get during the no start would be during cranking. Or am I thinking about this wrong?

I think I have the wrong address for ICP. At an idle it jumps all over the place. Readings like -6649, E489, other numbers starting with letters. The address I used is: 07E0221446 046205140646 3010 0C3900640000. Is this correct? Will look for the ICP% as well.

Well... Here's what I have for readings. in this order; KOEO, Cranking, Low idle, High idle (2500)
cold start
ICP; 0, 309,587, 1446
ICPV; .221, .31, .83, 1.64
IPR%@ECT 190*; 14.4, 50.7, 22.1 36.3

After it sat for 20 mins I had; KOEO, Cranking
ICP; 0, 287
ICPV; .221, .381
IPR; 14.4, 77.6

Does the ICP of 287 mean that my HPO system bled down to 287 psi? Any help deciphering the numbers and tips would be greatly appreciated

It seems the IPR% is lower than spec. What does this mean?

Lets make sure we're on the same page. All readings should be taken with the engine at operating temps. Since motor runs there's no need for readings while cranking.
