Sorta newbie question, my truck will start up but when it does it takes awhile for it to go. I recently changed out my fuel filters and I when I did all the pre starts as in on for 3 on off 15. It started up rather quickly like was almost brand new to an extent. Just trying to get a better understanding of what can to do ease the problem or completely get rid of the issue.

Thank you

 

Does it crank slow? Does it crank fast but a long time?

 

Like I'll turn the key and takes roughly 10 to 15 sec to turn over

 

And when it's going it's cranking fast like the spudering noise will be fast like it wants to turn over

 

Uhm. So it cranks fast then? Batteries fully charged? Any way to see voltage or monitor any other parameters like ICP/IPR?

 

I just recently put two brand new batteries in it

 

I'm just a little confused. Does it long crank and then run or just sputter?

 

Sorry I was using spudering as like describe the noise of it cranking sorry

 

Like JMoen7 says keep those batteries charged or you are asking for more problems.
Sounds like you still have air in system
Did you use OEM filters.

You really need a scan gauge, dash boss, forcsan or something to read gauges.

Is this the first time you changed the filters yourself?

 

Yes it's my first time doing it myself but like its a problem well not a problem because truck starts up but it was doing this even before switched out the filters

 

Sometimes the
"O" ring on the caps gets twisted. If you did not use OEM filters it my not be pressing on the valve inside the secondary filter on the engine to let enough fuel in or out? Without a set of gauges it's really hard to tell much more. I would reinstall both filters and be sure to lube "O" ring.

 

Ok thank you I'll look into that and now with getting an OEM filters is there any place special I need to go to get them or do most any place carry them

 

Most parts stores carry them. Just ask for Motorcraft Walmart also sells them

 

Thank you very much for the help

 

JoshuaBow. If that doesn't do it. Come back but you really need a way for us to tell what all is going on like scan gauge ,dash boss ,or forscan. Or toquepro
