This is the Diesel conversion forum section. you may have better luck posting in the IDI section.

Not starting when hot is a worn injector pump rotor until proven otherwise... pour a bottle of water over the pump head and see if it starts right up then.

But not starting after sitting overnight (with glow plugs known working) can also be a worn IP, if the cranking speed doesn't make enough pressure to pop the injectors. Also likely is a remaining air intrusion problem you haven't found yet.

Does the truck ever start right up?
