Hokay,
The truck was sitting all summer long. The fuel tank was filled up before it was parked.
I went to start it on Sunday and of coarse the batteries were dead. So I gave it a jump start and she fired up after cranking over a little longer than she usually would...rightfully so after sitting all summer.
After the truck started I took it for a good drive and kept her running for a little over an hour. Once I parked it and shut it down and I restarted it to make sure the batteries were holding a charge...they were and she fired right back up.
So on Monday I went to start her up again and it would just crank over...no signs of starting. The batteries did seem to be a bit weak but they should have had enough jam for a start. So after about 15 seconds of cranking I stopped and let her sit for a couple of minutes to let the starter cool and I repeated the process about 6 times unitl the batteries died. I hooked up the cables again, while it was charging I took apart the fuel filter to make sure she was getting fuel...and it was. So I hopped back in and this time she started but stalled immediately. After a couple more tries she actually started and stayed running. Again I took it for a good ride and before a I parked it for the day I shut it down and re-started it with no problems.
So today I went to move her around again and the same problem persisted. It seems to strat fine when the engine has been running and is hot but not so much on a cold start. The temp outside is about 65 so glow plugs really shouldnt be an issue.
The truck is thowing no codes. Could this be a CPS or HPOP issue? I replaced 3 injectors last winter and when it is actually running it runs smooth with no hiccups or loss of power. I'm stumpped:doh:
Side note...the truck has about 85000 miles and I am running 15w40 rotella with ford filters for warmer weather use.
lol' help??:dunno:
