Starting trouble.
Hi everyone new user but long time Ford driver. I have 1990 Ford F-350 crew Cab Dually running the 7.3l international. Love the truck and power train however I’m having some starting issues. In the morning the truck will crank over the die instantly. I have two options at this point. I can hook up to another vehicle and boost it and it will start or I can keep trying to crank and it will start. I have replaced all the injectors, ran a new power line ( both positive and negative). Once it is running though I am able to start the truck for the rest of the day no issues.
if anyone can help it would be greatly appreciate

You can do an air bubble test by installing clear tubing in the return line. If the pump cavitates, it will produce air bubbles. Generally if an old or OE pump, the cold start may be hard, or/and including rough idle until the air clears. On a warmed engine, most often it will run fine.. If it fires straight off cold, glow system 'should' be ok, but always something to check...
