[QUOTE="D66stroke, post: 1547732, member: 7886"] We have a 03 7.3, if the truck sits for a couple days or more, it doesn't want to start. Sometimes it eventually starts, sometimes ether gets it going (I know I know..), and sometimes ether won't even fire it over. Once it starts, it will run fine and start anytime you need it as long as it's within a day or so of it running. So far whenever I plug the Auto Enginuity into it to watch ICP and IPR duty cycle, it fires right up, of course. I did get an ICP code (P1211 I think it was) but I think that was from emptying the oil rails on a hard pull. New parts are HPOP and IPR, ICP sensor, 3 sets of injectors, UVCH's, the list goes on. All OEM parts aside from injectors which are aftermarket. I tested fuel pressure a couple years ago due to another issue and it was within spec, 60+ psi at idle. I'll look at it again to confirm. Any ideas what I may have going on? It also recently got a new oil pan and this issue started happening after that, so I'm hoping it doesn't have something to do with the pickup tube. [/QUOTE]
