the truck has no problem starting cold, as in, its been sitting all night... sometimes.

if i try to start it again after, say, i went into the store and came back out, it takes like 3 times, everytime to get it started again. whats up with this?...

 

More description would help. Does it turn over or not crank etc...

 

it cranks, but no turn over....thats what i meant by each time... sorry.

 

If it acually turns the motor over but does not crank.. I would look more into a fuel or ignition problem. When was the last time you changed you fuel filter?

 

Also is it cranking at the regular speed or slow. If normal speed sounds like it is fuel related. Maybe the PCM is not sending the correct fuel mixture because it is thinking the engine is cold when it is warm. Could be a flakey coolant temp sensor??

 

Replace the fuel pressure regulator!

 

fuel filter got changed about 6k ago.... its been doing it ever since i bought it used. i was thinking maybe started was hanging up...

it cranks regular....

 

if it cranks/turns over regular but does not start, I would check the Fuel Pressure regulator.

 

okey... this would be....... where?... near the pump i suppose?
