1. JTUCKER TUCKER Says: I'm having to wedge the gas pedal to the floor for about an hour, an it will start then.
2. Christian Says: no crank or crank no start ???

no crank, check battery and charging system

no start, fuel pressure bleeding down. next time try this, turn your key on for 5 seconds then off. do this a couple of times, it'll build up fuel pressure and then start. when you turn your key on it cycles the fuel pump for 2 seconds, only enough to build fuel pressure to a full system. if it's drained back because of the fuel pressure regulator, then it would take a couple of cycles of the key to fill the system again
3. Vickie Says: I have a 99 Chevy Tahoe and it was my alternator running the battery down. Have those two things checked out before you do anything else. I bought a brand new battery and so far so good.
It started like that it wouldn't start in the morning but after trying and trying it eventually would. It will get to a point that it won't start at all without a jump. My advise is make sure you have some jumper cables in your truck.
