98JGC 5.2 Stumbles at cold start
The past few mornings my JGC takes a few cranks to start, when it
starts it seems its not firing on all 8 for about two seconds then it runs fine.Its had a Recent tune-up and starts fine the rest of the day. Any ideas? Thanks, JK |

billy ray did pass the time by typing:

That can be just about anthing from the check valve at the fuel pump to the regulator. Including leaking injectors. JK, try this. Turn the key on, wait a few seconds, turn it off, then turn it on, wait a few seconds, then start. That basically runs the pump a couple times. If it starts well after that then your problem was leak-down. > > ... >> The past few mornings my JGC takes a few cranks to start, when it >> starts it seems its not firing on all 8 for about two seconds then it >> runs fine.Its had a Recent tune-up and starts fine the rest of the day. >> Any ideas? >> Thanks, JK |

It's been very wet, I live near Seattle.I filled up at a 76 station
I've never used before right before the problem started, bad gas maybe? I will cycle the pump a few times and see what happens....Thanks |
