Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) fuel heater timeout

[Dixon]

Hey guys here is a two part question. How long does your "wait to start" light stay on? I've noticed that when I go out to start my truck that it's only staying on for about 5-6 seconds. What would cause it to shut off so fast? Ok here goes part three. When you shut off your truck do you still have a reading on your fuel pressure gauge (mechanical) and if so how long does it stay pressured up? Thanks, ben

My wait to start light goes off according to outside temps... if it is warm, it goes off almost immediately. If it is cold it takes a while as the grid heaters are cycling.

My FP gauge gradually goes to 0 when I shut off the engine. Have never sat their long enough to time it.
