Hello all and merry Christmas... I have been having a problem starting my truck for the last 3 or 4 weeks, doesnt matter the tempature. It turns over starts runs for 2 or 3 sec. then dies.? It will do this for 5 min, of trying to start. I cycle the glow plugs before each crank, I have pulled the EGR valve and cleaned it. I double treat every tank with diesle clean.( EGR was pretty clean, just a coat of soot that wiped off). I have changed my fuel filters. But heres the catch....If I plug it in, it starts right up?? So is it a glow plug issue? Keep in mind it doesnt matter if its 20 or 40 out..?? Thanks for your knowledge. Mike
