Weird Cold Start Problem
I am having an issue with my 01 F250. I have never had any issues in the past with it cranking in cold weather down to -18 until today.
The truck cranks fine in the morning after it has been on the block heater. The last few days we have had high temps in the teens and after sitting in the parking lot all day, it has been really difficult to start. I had to cycle it 6-10 times to get it to crank. Today, it failed to start. It sounds like the batteries are fine and that it is not getting fuel.
The last two tanks of diesel were purchased at the local Shell station rather than at my usual Marathon station. I do run the White bottle DFS in the wintertime.
So..................
Is it batteries? - I am overdue for new ones.
Is it possible I got a bad tank of fuel?
Is it something else like the Glow Plugs.
Thanks for any help.
