96 454 hard to start

[joshlovell31]

Bought a 96 gmc k3500 that was neglected. changed fuel filter, cap, rotor, plugs and wires and still sometimes hard to start while other times starts right up. Any ideas

Is the throttle body clean and the Iac ? how many miles are on it ? neglected is not easy to bring back to life, I have done it a few times.

Truck has 200,000 on it still has plenty of power and maybe neglected was the wrong word. well past service might be better. havent gone past regular maintenance plus what i mentioned early. I definitely will check into throttle body and iac
