Trouble starting???

I have noticed the last couple days that it takes a little longer for the PSD to crank up. I have remote start and sometime use it in the mornings to warm her up. well the last few mornings that hasn't worked. Even using the key it has taken a little longer to crank up. Could it be a something with the battery?

Truck is a 08 Job 1 superduty, any ideas?

How long does it crank before starting? Could be fuel draining back or low pressure.

Can you elaborate? My 08 6.4 takes upwards of 6 seconds of cranking sometimes to start. When the engine is cold, it fires right up. When it's at operating temp, it takes several seconds.
