My company has a the truck listed above, and I work alone for second shift.
It's fairly beat up (it's a construction work truck with 180k on it [they refuse to let it go]).
Anyway, I went to start it, and it's slow to start. The fuel pump engages, and it chugs a couple seconds before starting, and then it runs fine.
I called my boss to let him know so he doesn't think I did anything, he told me "Yea the guys were complaining about that, try and figure it out".
I read that a common issue is that in the fuel pump, there's a ball that sometimes gets clogged up, and that using the fuel cleaner each time you fill up could help after a few uses, but I thought that maybe it could be the starter motor going?
I was wondering if anyone had any ideas.
Thank you

So the engine cranks slowly? That would have nothing to do with the fuel filter.
Take it to Autozone, they'll tell you if it's the battery or the alternator, or possibly something else. Probably battery or alternator though.

maybe bad starter or battery is dying.
