Hello! I have a 1984 M1009 with the 6.2 diesel with only 50,000 miles on it. For some reason it seems to be having hard starts when the motor is cold. It has new batterys, new glow plugs. There is a puff of bluish white smoke that comes out after it starts with a heavy smell of fuel. Once the motor is warmed up, it always starts right up but when I let it sit over night and let it cool off, it has hard starts. I am thinking low compression or the small leak from the injection pump throttle seal? I am doing 2x 15 second glow plug cycles with a 6 sec cool down on the glow plugs to get it to start. What do yal think?
