Okay,

VIBRATION PROBLEM SOLVED. I had to buy new tires AGAIN(now on my 4th set since buying the truck). Right rear tire had a big flat spot, so I bought 4 practically new Firestone wilderness(Not a big fan, but.....)for another $300. Instantly the vibration went away.

Now for my starting issue. It seems to have also disappeared. Both all of yesterday and so far today, everytime I go to start it up, it fires right up. No smoke out the tailpipe, and no pushing on the gas pedal. So I dont know whats going on. But as long as it works properly, I am happy. Thanks everyone for your help. I will keep you all updated if the problem returns.

T100 won't start either

I have had 3 machanics look at it. I know it's not the fuel pump or fuel compression. I know it's not the starter; it will turn over. It will eventually fire after turning it over for 15 min. ...so eventually, it will be the starter. Valves cleaned and new cylinders// Did you find out why your T100 has been hard startin'?

Not yet. My starting problem had gone away for a bit, came back for a few days, and now seems to start right up again. It seems that the problem only occurs in the afternoon when its outside temp is hot. If its cold outside, it starts right up....
