Best Answer

I was having a problem in my 1986 Ford diesel. The engine would start immediately even after sitting for weeks, but then would immediately stall. It would then take about a minute of cranking ( two or three 15 -20 second periods of cranking so as to not burn out the starter) and then would finally fire up and be fine until it was left for more than a day. I couldn't find any leaks in the fuel system so I installed an electric fuel pump between the tanks and the engine. It was about $50 at Kraegens. Now I can turn on my "booster pump" for about as long as the glow plugs warm up and the engine starts immediately and settles into a smooth idle.
