Hot Hard Start

I have the same problem with my truck. It starts fine when it sits overnight, but when I go to start it when its warm, it won't start unless I bleed the injectors. I am going to take it to a Cummins dealer to have the ecm flashed with the new TSP. If that doesn't work, do you know of a good supplier of VP44's?

Wow, they charge $300 to reflash the computer? How long ago was this?

Yeah, $300 bucks. they charge 150 per hour here and it took a couple with having to dig into the archives. Seems a little much. It's been a month since I had it done. I didn't ask what an oil change cost...
