Hello im new at this site , so please be patient with me. 

Ive got a 1998 ch613 mack with a E7 425hp, she cranks rite up in the morning's but when she is warm its takes forever (starter speed sounds right turning the motor).. my electronic malfunction light some days comes on.. but cuts off by itself.

Dont know what else to look for..?

Can it be compression??

Thanks guys for any help

First you need to read the ecm codes.Then go from there.It could be low voltage to the ecm.Sometimes a hot engine is harder to turn than a cool engine and pulls the voltage too low.Only way to check it is get some one to check the ecm voltage when cranking and hot.

Could be something as simple as  grounds
