The orange light that shows glow plug is warmimg up stays on for bout 4 seconds. i have to repeat this process bout 4 times. the motor cranks but only after struggling a little comes to life. then only after the diesel pump was reconditioned, i am finding black powder residue on the floor ( exhaust) the guy who repaired car says that when car is switched off for the night, diesel is stored in the carb that causes the mornig sluggish start and black residue
SOURCE: Glow plug will not light up
replace the solenoid under the hood mounted generally on the firewall
SOURCE: 1991 f350 7.3 diesel hard starting in am
you will find that it may be the glow plug timer is faultycausing the glow plugs not getting hot enough
SOURCE: 04 f250 diesel cranks but won't start
this is an oil pressure problem, either a sensor is not sensing enough oil pressure, or the high pressure pump is not building enough pressure(possibly leaking or head is leaking). this engine requires 450 psi minimum oil pressure at the injectors to actuate the injectors.

Hi Shaunbarry, Have you been able to fix the problem changing the EGR valve?

ok...ill check glow plugs...but what about the black powder residue from the exhaust
If the glow plugs aren't working the fuel is not burned and it goes out the exhaust. Of course this is a diesel and carbon residue is part of the beast.
