80 300TD - Car has been starting just fine even in cold weather. It started showing starting problems after I removed and reinstalled the #5 fuel injector metal tubing that runs between the IP and the injector. There was fuel seeping around #5 injector and I was going to swap it with a spare inj that I had. I removed the tubing but changed my mind about swapping injectors for now. So I reinstalled tubing.

Tried starting car and it would crank but not start or has very hard time firing. It only starts after several tries and if battery is jumped since battery starts getting weak after 10 tries. It eventually fires with the gas pedal pushed down but not like it did b4 - fired at first crank without touching pedal.

I checked GPs and they all have power. I also primed pump and #5 line to removed air. Did I miss something here???

This is a head scratcher for me....

ps. Yes, I did take it out for a ride. In fact, I drove it to work like I have been doing (after a tough time starting). Had problem starting at work parking lot. Had buddy jump and it eventually started. Drove it home and its inside my heated garage now - hood open and been tinkeringwith it. Still exhibit same problem.
