My brother's truck is a '94 7.3 with factory turbo.
He's having a hard time to start it lately. When he plugs it for few hours then it will start after some effort. When its running it works fine, no hesitations or problems and behave like it's in the correct timing. He thinks there could be some problems with the advance cold timing.
Glowplugs are new, glowplugs controller system is a new one from Motorcraft, he has fuel in all the lines (he test them loosing up a little the nut at the injectors), injectors are new.
He's afraid to use the truck because after a hard time to started it, it will be almost impossible to started it again when you go someplace and try to comeback home.
Any advice or tests you would recommend?
Thanks,
Burt, the Florida *******.
