    Intermittent no start

    I had checked the starter at O'Reilly's with their portable battery tester and it checked good. Took it off the truck and took it inside to get tested and it was doing all sorts of weird crap on the tester and it tested bad. Replaced it with their Ultima Mitusbishi reduction gear starter and the...

    Intermittent no start

    I checked the glow plugs through the harness connectors today and I think I have some bad plugs. The readings I got are as follows, passenger side: 1- 0.6Ω, 3- 1.8-2.0Ω, 5- 0.6Ω, 7- 0.8Ω. Driver's side were: cylinder 2- 0.8Ω, 4- 1.2Ω, 6- 0.9Ω, 8- 0.6Ω. I didn't have any Ω between the 2 outer...

    Intermittent no start

    Idk honestly man, I'm waiting on a buddy's friend to let me borrow a scan gauge. I don't have anything to read the sensors with. I'm going to ohm out the glow plugs tomorrow and see what they're reading.

    Intermittent no start

    Update: plugged in the block heater today for about 3 hrs and went to crank it. Fired right up. Checked the glow plug relay and the post that is supposed to be energized with the key on is not displaying 12v..

    Intermittent no start

    Who knows maybe it's a glow plug system issue or maybe bad injectors? I'm gonna try to check the ICP and IPR numbers with that scan gauge.

    Intermittent no start

    I don't have anything to read the sensors with. Yea it doesn't die slowly or anything like that, it's just the first start of the day that's the problem because after that it'll crank right up every time. Idle doesn't change at all when I plug the ICP back in after its running and I can start it...

    Intermittent no start

    But if it was the ICP it should start every time with it unplugged correct? Cause it's definitely not doing that. I just went to start it after it sitting for 24 hrs, and it wouldn't start again. I had to crank it a few times and eventually I depressed the gas pedal a bit and it seemed like it...

    Intermittent no start

    I got a new to me 96 psd, it has always had somewhat of a lazy/long crank but it was running fine until one weekend after sitting for about 4 days would not start. I noticed the fuel bowl did not seem to be losing fuel, the bowl was about 1/3 full and there was fuel in the valley. So after...

    96 7.3 Intermittent no start.

    So the truck was running fine before the long weekend where it sat for 4 days as I went out of town, went to go to work and it didn't start (crank but no start). I went to investigate after work and these were my findings: Batteries were good, GPR checked good with full voltage to both posts...
