Nobody will respond to my question in the correct thread.
Chevy ‘98 1500 2WD 5.7 liter
So I am having an issue with my truck starting consistently. (166258 miles) It has no problem starting in the morning (cold start) but has an issue after being turned off or if it warms up. It starts after long periods of cranking.
What I have checked and done.
1. Changed fuel filter.
2. Checked fuel pressure. Was okay.
3. Changed spark plugs.
4. Opened oil spout while running to check compression. No oil was spit out.
5. Connected to computer. Zero codes.
6. No issue on accelerating once running.
7. No issue pulling hills once started.

Well this forum seems to suck, that's probably the reason you're not getting any help.
I tried to ask about a Chevy model which isn't listed in the categories.
Not only did my post never get approved by the admins, I didn't even get a message or email explaining why it didn't get posted.
It might be moved to another part, but nobody has told me where.
Fortunately, I managed to do everything on my own. And will leave this sorry excuse for a forum for all eternity.
So yeah. Good luck getting help. Hope you have better luck than I did.
