your videos of this is the only time i've seen it happen, you sure its that common? idp tuning yeah?

I was just going by the number of people saying their trucks do it too in the thread. Matt is doing my tuning.

I don't think any of us have it happen at 70 degrees though... but most people replying in the thread are running stock sticks too.

Mine will not puff any smoke until it sits all night long and the temp in the morning is below 30*

Only time mine has done anything like that is when its sat overnight in single digit temps, I wouldn't be overly worried about it if everything smooths out and the truck runs fine, but I would be curious as to how bad it would start if it actually saw some cold temps.

I've recently cranked my truck at 22* after sitting for 5 days (EOT and EOT both at 22*) and it sounds nothing like that. I'll say it again, it sounds like stiction. Whats the harm in pouring some HSS or Rev-X in it?

Mine does it every single morning. Does it a lot longer than yours though.

How big are the injecors? It seems like its oil related to me whether its in the tuning or you have a leak or possible failing hpop. Have you got a reading of the hpop since adding the injectors. It seem s the icp is spiking from something causing it is my guess either. Bad icp or ipr also maybe.

Mines never done it even in the 20's

How old are the batteries in that thing? Talk about a slow crank

oke:

Mine used to do that. Put fresh batteries in it problem solved

285s. Can't remember that truck hasn't ran in a while. It's over 500psi tho.

Battries are about a year old.

My truck will do it if it isn't plugged in and with 15w40. I usually change to 5w40 over the winter but, haven't done so yet. I have new batteries, ficm, too.

I would still sh it myself if mine started up like that...i wonder also if its a cold rusty block problem.

yeehaw · Dec 5, 2011

does it change rpm as it does it?

Cutting-Edge Diesel · Dec 5, 2011

Oh yeah!

It only does it when it's been sitting more than 24hrs. I would probably be more concerned if it did it longer.

BlueWaffle · Dec 5, 2011

here's mine after a 30+ hour sit. bout 35 outside. mine seems to romp a lot faster than yours.....who knows.

Cutting-Edge Diesel · Dec 5, 2011

yeah thats what im use to with a cold start. Its seems like its alot more defined lope, if that makes any since.

Stroke of luck. your truck is about as pleasing to look at as really good porn.

:whs:

chappy · Dec 5, 2011

Yeah stroke that is what mine does at those temps. I don't consider that a romp myself and nothing close to the op's truck. I think thats the norm with colder temps.

HaysKSFirefighter · Dec 5, 2011

Mine romps about twice then smooths out to 900 rpms or so when its real cold, then the rpms drop down til high idle kicks on. This is with Matts tuning...I'm a little surprised its doing it with new injectors.
