hello!
thanks for letting me join and ask a question about my 1992 V-6 extracab. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
sometimes the truck doesn't want to start in the mornings. the engine turns over fine, but it seems like no fuel is getting to the cylinders, because it doesn't catch. so i crank it, let it sit for a 10-count, and then repeat til she catches fire. once it starts, she runs great (as usual). so i'm thinking it's the fuel filter, but would like to hear some other ideas before i start working on her.

some background: i've had this truck for the last 30k of its 160k miles, and have no idea if/when the fuel filter was ever changed. it's been about 15k miles since i had a boat-load of work done while getting the head gasket recall work done. so i got a complete valve job done, and also had the timing belt, drive belts, water pump, idler pulley, tensioner pulley, crank seal, spark plugs done. since then i've religiously changed the oil & filter every 3k, and replaced the air filter every 9k.

please advise if fuel filter seems to be the right thing, and also what other things (pcv? or ??) i should do while i'm at it.
thanks!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
