Volvo Mini Excavator ....mechanical question

Hello,
I have a 2006 Volvo Ec15b with low hours (500) it runs fine but has a difficult time starting up.
On a cold start, the engine turns for almost 12-15 seconds before it fires up.
The warmer is it the faster it starts up.

It has a brand new battery and fresh fuel filters.

Is there anything else i can check or change before i play with the fuel pump ?..

thanks in advance.
regards, Nick.

Cat D8T Engine Miss Firing

I am operating a Cat D8T here in New Zealand.
It has an engine miss firing problem, usually later in the day when fuel gets lower in the tank. No problem early in the day
We have had the Cat dealer look at it twice, but nothing shows up on their computer, making us think it may be a fuel issue. Have replaced the fuel filters early in the piece, but problem still persists.
