Air leak in fuel lines. He said it is not delivering fuel to the
nozzles when the condition exists. As an aside, Michael, you don't
need to crack the injection lines. Just prime it with the hand pump,
then crank it.
I had a similar problem with an S10 pickup, it was something in the
ignition system but since your car is a diesel I guess it would not
be a hot ignition module...
You sure it is fuel related? Is the glow system working OK? Glow
plug fuse? Relay? I replaced the relay on the 84 300SD with
whatever that new thing is Rusty sells, a fast glow relay or
something? Or maybe it is just a new version of the same old.
Whatever, the car starts much better now. (Hey, maybe that is like
the hot ignition module?)

Car starts very hard, sometimes not at all when I try to restart
after driving long enough to get to full operating temperature. If
I restart within a few minutes it starts right up. If I wait for 2
to hours it starts right up. If I try to start up within an hour
or two it will not start. To get it to start I have to loosen
injector lines and crank or manual pump until I get fuel to the
injectors. During the winter here in Michigan I had no problem
whatsoever. As soon as we hit 70 degrees plus it started acting up
again. Is this a problem with the injector pump or do I have holey
hose somewhere in the system?
Thanks,
Mike
