05 6 liter

When I start my truck when the engine cool it spits and sputters then when it warms up it runs fine. Can anyone help?

Do you have the "buzz" flash, where it buzzes for a short time after you shut it off? There is a newer flash called inductive heat flash where the spools in the injector are heated and is supposed to help with your condition. I myself have the same thing, runs great when it warms up, and I need to get the latest "flash" previously described. Do you run any additive in your fuel?

Most here recommend Power Service Diesel Kleen every tank. White bottle for winter, has anti-gel, and gray bottle for the rest of the year. You can get this at Walmart among other stores. What about the buzz flash?
