Ford E450 class c with V10 slow to start sometimes

I have a 04 class c with the v10. After it sit for some time it will turn over for 5-10 sec be for starting up. It dose not do this all the time mostly after it sits for a week or two. It has done it a few time while stoping for an hour or so. All other time she fires up as soon as you turn it over. Just wondering if this is normal?
  • Hi,

    You can turn on the key, then wait 10 seconds for the fuel injection system to pressurize, then turn to the "Start" position. It should start with minimal cranking at that point.
