Check your Circuit Opening Relay (COR) really good because it sounds like you aren't getting fuel. If it sits overnight and maybe a little leaks out of your injectors you get a moment of ignition. I've never been able to get one to hit by spraying ether into it. The intake runners are too long and it never seems to make it down into the cylinders or something. Check your fuel pressure at the rails. You can rent a kit with the appropriate banjo bolt adapter from AZ or Oreilly's. Use a test light with a buddy and verify you're getting injector pulse when it's cranking. I'm still sure you've popped a relay and just haven't found it or properly tested them.

Well, I pulled 3 plugs, and all where wet and firing, even shot gas in my eye while turning over to check spark. Thanks for the help guys, but I decided to back up and punt. Tow truck is on the way, to haul her to the shop. Ill be sure to log in, and let yall know what was wrong. Thanks again

We need to troubleshoot this, not look aimlessly for blown fuses and relays.
She is fixed!! I have no idea how this happened, but he showed me. It was 90degrees out of time. Truck run perfect, hooked battery up reverse polarity, replace all fuses wouldn't crank, and had it towed to shop, and 140$ and a new timing belt later im back on the road. Was time to do that anyways. Anybody got a explanation for this?

I spoke to soon!! I went to crank my truck to leave for work this am, and it made this fast clicking sound, and im almost positive its the timing belt slipping. Hope the guy will redoo it. And come to think of it I think I heard that same sound after trying to crank after hooking battery up backwards...

Did they think to change the hydraulic tensioner along with any of those four timing belts? (Sorry if you mentioned that, I didn't read back.)
