Default 2000 silverado hard start

My 2000 with a 5.3 has a hard start issue. It cranks fine and finally starts and runs fine. I think it is not holding fuel presure while it is sitting. Wondering where the check valve is. Is it in the fuel pump or the regulator?

Default RE: 2000 silverado hard start

my last bosses company truck was just like that, try leaving the key on ON for 3-5 sec. before cranking it over, this lets the pressure build up.
