    New to this forum, I have a 2002 tundra V6, anyway, I pulled a misfire code on #4 cylinder about 2 months ago, after changing all the plugs and plug wires, code went away, running great. Here’s my question…

    when the motors cold, it fires right up, when warm it seems to take a few ignitions strokes to fire. Any and all suggestions will be greatly appreciated-KO

    1- change the title. "Help", "Need help", and other nondescriptive "help" titles are reserved for people that need help such as stuck/broke down/wrecked in remote areas without assistance close by or a means to self recover.

    2- when you crank it when warm, does it crank at normal speed, or is it slower than cold cranking?

    Yes, please edit your title so people know it’s not an S.O.S. (you’re not stranded and gonna die if we don’t help you move your truck off the levy).

    Windsor, I have made changes to the title, in answer to your question, no it cranks at normal speed, sometimes fires right up, other times it takes a bit, but when it fires it runs fine. It almost feels like a fuel issue

    I've experienced this with my 4.7 4runner. I would look to the fuel system. When was the last time the fuel filter was changed? What is the fuel pressure?

    For me it ended up being low fuel pressure and a new pump solved my issue.

    You may be bleeding off pressure. I would start by doing a pressure test.
