Default hard starting

96 6.5l have an issue seems to crank for a long time before it catches.glow plugs good and new lift pump and fuel filter wondering if pmd could be the cause or should i look some where else? i checked the ops ok.The pmd is original 250 000KM.

hard starting isnt a pmd problem unless your truck is stalling once it warms up. your glowplug controller probably needs to be changed.

if all your glowplugs have a resistance of less than one and have clean connections its probably your gp controller
