Default Won't start

Hey I have a 99 f250. Had fuel in the coolant. So I replaced the injector cups and put new o-tings on the injectors. Got everything back together done a oil change and drained the coolant. Put in new oil and coolant flush. Went to go start it and now my truck won't start. Need help!!

How long have you cranked on it after putting it back together? Is it just cranking and not starting or what is doing?

Feels like I have been cranking it forever. It will turn over but will not start. Trying to stay away from starting fluid as much as possible.

It can take alot of cranking to get it to start, more than you think it should. Do not use starting fluid ever unless you want to lift a head
