Hi all, had an intermittent problem the last couple of months. If the truck (1998 - 1st of the 24valves)is plugged in all seems great, starts no problem. But if it"s in the garage overnight or outside then when I first go to start it, there is no fire, it cranks great, but I can get no fuel at the injectors. last couple of times to start it, I"ve ended up taking the fuel filter out and adding diesel melt of some form and 1/2 an hour later it starts... I change the filter last week and it started fine after that, and it seems like the lift pump puts out lots of fuel (sprayed all over the engine bay when I loosened the pressure check ports on top of the filter). I"m stumped as to what"s causing it? I don"t think it can be a gelling issue as I use good quality diesel (that"s not causing a problem in any of my tractors)and anti gel too. but that is what it seems like to me.
Anyone else have any other ideas. Thanks.
