Wayne, when the engine is in the "hard to start condition", and then it
finally starts, does it do so on all cylinders, or does it go thru a
period where only 1, 2, 3, etc cylinders are firing for a while before
all 6 finally kick in? This could indicate a very slow leak between the
injection pump and the injectors.

Usually you can hear one or two kick a couple of times and then they
all light up a second or two later.

On a DD671 there is no central injection pump. Each cylinder has its
own driven by the cam as I understand it.
