How cold was it (ambient temperature) when you started it?
Mine wouldn't start this morning, thinking its plugs but I just bought it and I'm going to try to get it in the shop tomorrow. Plugging in the heater tonight

Well, it's your truck of course, but I always set the high idle by turning the key on, depressing the pedal to the floor and releasing, *then* cranking it...
