Default 99 Silverado hard to start problem solved!!

After several long weeks of startin up easy in the mornings and truck sitting 9hrs during the day and startin hard after work "Finally came across a post that fit my problems to a T". In the 45 min drive to work- couldn't get any better, after work- roll over up to 20-25 seconds " it seemed" then she would fire up- middle real rough and stink/smoke as if it was flooded. After those starts I would have to let it warm up like the old cold natured carbureted 350's. A mechanic I am not but a do it ur selfer I am. 1 fuel pump, fuel filter, carbon vent purge value kit, plugs, wires and countless hrs of cussing and working till the birds start churpin: A $50 fuel pressure regulator 5 min job solved all my headache's!!!! Hell yeah!!!! Thanks to All that takes the time to post their problems and fixes!!!!! Gonna refer to this site for all future problems!!!!!!!
