Hello I would like to first say thank you for all the help this site has given me since I bought my Powerstoke.
My problem is on first start up of the day the truck will start fine but idle for about a second and shut off. Then its a real pain to get started it will just crank and crank and I have to press the throttle to get it started again. If I give it a little throttle right as soon as it starts up on the first try it will sometimes stay running but I really hate giving it any throttle on start up. The rest of the day it starts fine.
This has been a problem for about a year but it would only happen when the truck sat for days now its every morning.
Info/background:
Its a 00' with 214,000 on it. Runs great. Glow plugs are less the 10 months old had same problem prior to replacing them. Fuel filter is due to be changed(15k on it) and will be done this week.
Normal mods, 4" turbo back exhaust, 6637 filter, ATS turbo housing, DP tuner. Bought the truck bone stock at 198,000. Problem existed then but but was only when the truck sat for days.
Any direction would be great.
Thanks
