    1995 7.3 powerstroke no start without prime
    I'm working on a 95 direct injection diesel that won't start without a small shot of either. Runs good after starting shows no codes. Tried a different computer,new fuel filter. What could be the problem?

    Check the glow plugs. Be sure to replace the under frame and under hood fuel filters. Ensure the oil level is full and that it has been recently changed, along with the filter.
