[QUOTE="Suny, post: 118072, member: 2682"] First thing in the morning it cranks a really long time. After pressure shows in the dash it starts. I have a pressure gauge 3kpsi on the oil rail (not sure if its a valid test really) just to see what it reads and how long it takes for pressure to build for the HUEI system. At idle it reads 500psi +/- 20psi, High idle 2500+psi. Im assuming is normal. Although im thinking i should find something closer to the oil pump itself to see what the rest of the oil pressure is, im assuming this would confirm massive oil drainage from the HUEI system. Ive also come across a few articles here about long starts, with the oil pump worn it can cause this problem. Not sure if the boss wants to go that far into the truck or not. Just a note: My boss used to work for International so he has a few hook ups. He has said that it might be fuel related and i had made a previous thread about the truck going into limp mode. I had asked about fuel pressure and stock pressure is 52psi. Another posted had said there is a couple of places on the fuel bowl that i can use to test pressure where are these ports as the truck will be sitting over night and id like to check both at the same time with the truck cold.
