2006 long hot starts
 
Ok so I started having long hot starts or no starts. I just watched the ICP and it took a long time to build up past 500. So would I just be going after stands and dummy plugs? Or should I look at something else first?

Thanks.

If those haven't been done that's where I would start. Has the STC fitting been replaced? If not I would do that one too.

Not sure on the stc fitting. Didn't they upgrade the stc's after 2005? I will definitely do plugs and pipes. Wasn't sure if I should look anywhere else.

Never updated the STC that I have heard of, same fitting all the way through the '10 E series if I am correct.

An air test will confirm some thing for sure, you might also be a candidate for upper injector seals and nipple cups o-rings.
