4.2 starting issue

It driving me crazy. Every 10th start of engine it cranks over and over before it fires up, no codes, changed plugs, wires, crank trigger, fuel filter, upper and lower intake gaskets, injectors, iacv. I have no clue. Runs great all time just starting issue every 10th or so start takes 10- 15 seconds to start

Respectfully, you spent time and money on everything that would not cause an intermittent no start especially if the motor runs good otherwise.
Have you thought about checking fuel pressure? with a gauge.
The motor needs fuel or it will not start.
What is the fuel pressure with several key on cycles before cranking when the trouble is present?
Good luck.
