We have replaced the injectors. It's getting fuel to them. It's just not starting. Not even if you out a soaked gas rag on the intake. Won't even tray to start.


It also makes like a sucking south. It pushed mat hand away from it torbo.
 
Blue2002, turn the key on and listen for the lift pump to run, once it stops, momentarily bump the starter, the pump should start back up and run for a time, after it quits, try to start the truck.
You may need to repeat the process outlined above a couple of times.

Also, check that you have the rockers adjusted correctly, since it's been all apart.

Plug gap plays a larger role than you'd think. You want a large gap, but that requires more current that your system might not have on hand, and you run the risk of 'putting out the flame'. I'd start around 0.028" and see how they do there.
