Default hard starting

looking for help. when my trucks cold it has a miss under acceleration. and now this weekend it started being difficult to start after its warmed up. the cold thing its been doing for awhile now, the hard start is new. any thought as to what it might be? im thinking fuel injector for the cold part not sure on the hot end

Check your FICM
The how to is here in the 6.0 section as a sticky. do you have a scanner to pull any codes? my ficm failed two weeks ago. didnt turn on a check engine light, but the codes were there. I was showing 8 codes for the injectors.

what year is your truck?

the cold start is probably stiction, revX should help that. the hotstart is most likely the SYC fitting on high presure oil pump or the dummy pugs and or standpipes have a bad oring.
