760 V6 Hot Start Issues. (Alex Dermedgoglou, WHERE ARE YOU?!?) 700

I am having the exact same problem Alex from the FAQ had. Every so often when I start my B280F based 760, she dosn't have that get up and go when you give her gas. I'm thinking it's the fuel filter, pump, regulator, or injectors. Unfortunately, I am not familliar with diagnosing or working with these systems. I have fabricated a test LED and viewed the 6-flashes which don't consistently come on... they only come on when the problem occurs.

My question is, if Alex happens to be out there somewhere, what was the problem? If it's something easy to fix (Can we say filter?) then I can do it myself. If it's something hard to do, I can (looks at feet) do- it- my- self.

If anyone else listening, 6 flashes means Cyl #1 sensor failure. I'm not sure why this occurs, but any info would be helpful. As for diagnostic routines for my fuel system, those too would be much appriciated. (especially with safety information)

Thanks in advance, and if I seem like a bafoon, it's real late for me. :)
