When I turn the key the truck turns over for a few seconds before starting. I was wondering where the problem might be at.

if it turns over,then it cant be the starter.sounds like fuel to me.did you change the gas filter?you might check the plugs,they might need cleaned and adjusted.

i own a shop,and there may not actually be that much of a problem with it,other than a good tune up,not all vehicles will start right up as soon as the key is turned over,but just doing a good basic tune up will improve the way any vehicle starts and runs,usually that's all they need is a good tune up,or a new gas filter on them,its usually a minor thing,good luck with it i hope this helps.

If it is hard to start after sitting for a while but starts right up ofter it has been warmed up it could be the fuel pump. If it hasn't been tuned up for a while I would try that first

If any of the below has not been done recently:
Replace air filter, spark plugs, spark plug wires, cap and rotor, pcv valve, breather cap, oil and filter change, fuel filter.
Blam, it runs.

Idle set too high or throttle body hanging open lets in air when it sits for a while
