does it smoke while running? If it does you could have a low compression problem and the rings arent sealing enough to ignite the diesel. If its not smoking and the comp is good the i would say your having problems getting fuel and thats why the either is working. Its running on either till the fuel gets there. Then when you restart it it still has fuel.

Hopefully it was a good buy, because hard starting is usually not a strong selling point !!...But anyway...does it smoke white when cranking to initially start it ??? Or is there no smoke when its cranking ???
