    F 250 turbo diesel hard starting
    I have a 2001 f 250 turbo diesel. It is now giving me trouble starting. I had a 1986 and it was usually the glow plugs that would need changed. I can not even find the glow plugs on this one. Does it have some other type of electronic ignition? The truck has 77,000 miles on it and all I've done is routine maintenance.
    Thanks
