24v Wont Start After It Rains
Its strange but after my truck sits over night after it rains or snows it will not start.
Its like it loses prime somehow. I crack and injector and I cant get it to start, but if I give it a shot of starting fluid it will pick right up and run fine until it rains again.

Well once again it has rained and now it wont start.
Yeah I know using fluid is bad but thats the only way I can make it start and yes the heaters are unplugged.

Rain is water which interferes with the ignition system & spark plugs. You ain't got on spark plugs so consider rain irrelevant. Start searching for fuel leaks.
My CKP acted up & caused intermittent no starts. It was as if fuel wasn't getting from VP to injectors. AirDog kicked to 15# as normal. I didn't hit it with ether so don't know if it would have started. CKP didn't throw codes.
