What is the recommended starting squence for an IDI? Reading the info on the sunvisor it says when the temp is above 32 degrees to depress the pedal part way and when its below 32 degrees push it all the way to the floor.
Up until tonight the truck and been starting pretty darn good. After a 22 degree night it started on the send GP cycle. Made me quite happy. And while we were in Ohio I got to plug it in overnight and it started on the second spin of the motor. For the 3 weeks or so that we've owned the truck I've never had to cycle the GPs more than 4 times to get it to start.
So tonight I go out to start the truck and it won't fire. I keep trying and once in a while it will pop but won't catch. A couple of times I thought it was starting but then it stopped.
During all of this I can smell diesel. If it was a gasser I'd say the choke was stuck closed and it was flooded.
So how do I start this thing
