6.2L cranks but won't start?

Hi Folks,

Here is the situation:

Outside temp is 97 degrees. Vehicle does have fuel as I added 2 more gallons just to make sure it wasn't a stuck gauge. This is a 1986 M998 with a 6.2L that ran perfectly yesterday. There are three other occasions when trying to start the vehicle it took approximately 15-20 seconds of cranking the engine before it would start. There is white smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe while the engine is cranking.

I don't know where the fuel filters are located on this vehicle so I can't check for clogged filters and I haven't yet pulled a fuel line to verify if the fuel pump is working properly.

Any ideas of what this might be before I have to pull a fuel line and check?

thanks,
Ron
