I just bought a 2001 Dakota 3.9 starts hard, crank from 5 to 10 seconds before starting. It idle ruff for 5to 10 seconds then smooths out and runs fine. There is not a check engine light other then this the truck runs fine.
I've turned the key on and waited 20 to 30 seconds doesn't make a difference. Truck only has 66,000 miles on it. Does anyone have any ideas or directions to point me to.

Thanks

 

check the IAC, TPS, battery connection.
