Ok what do you mean won't crank? Does the engine turn over at all or just do nothing when you turn the key? Let me know what you find. Thanks.

Have you checked to see if there is spark? If so does it have fuel and good fuel pressure? You checked to make sure you didn't forget to plug something in at the start solenoid next to the battery right? Let me know what you can and we will go from there.

Ok a no start only happens if you have no fuel or have no spark. If the injectors are not getting the signal to open then it won't start. So I would buy a noid light and plug it in where the injector goes and see if it pulsed or not. If you do not understand how to do this you need to take the truck to a good shop and have them test this stuff.
