That happened to mine. First time it was a fuse. Second time the oil pressure regulator had melted so. And i would check the crankshaft sensor if all else fails.

ok i will check the crankshaft sensor, will update results on tuesday.

Camshaft sensor.... CPS (Camshaft positioning sensor)

And yes, I believe your truck should have started with those pressure numbers.

cableneff 03-02-2011 06:22 PM

ok i just put a new cps from the ford house on the truck and nothing... still wont start so im going to pull the drivers side valve cover and check for oil passing the injectors, can't be to many things left to change or check or is there...

The truck cranks but wont fire? Does smoke come out the tailpipe when you crank? You said it started on Ether, does it stay running with ether or immediately die? How are the batteries? Can you check your HPOP Res and stick a straw or something in there to see how far down the oil is?

cableneff 03-03-2011 02:52 PM

thats correct it will turn over but wont start. will die right away after eather shot and the hpop resevior is full. both batteries are pretty new and on a charger.

If you open the Fuel filter housing in the middle of the valley, is it full of fuel?

cableneff 03-05-2011 01:03 PM

yes, i have taken the fuel filter cap off a couple of times just to check the fuel level and its good and full, even went so far as to turn truck over and verify that fuel is coming in to the bowl.

I need to know if there is a way to check if oil is getting to the injector, like can i pull the injector and turn the engine over and look to see oil in the opening or something.

Your oil in the case is full correct?

Have you tried unplugging the ICP sensor and trying to start it?

Is there anybody near you willing to let you try a known good IDM?

cableneff 03-05-2011 06:16 PM

yes the oil in the truck is at the correct level, hpop is full, i just put a new icp sensor on the truck and i've just tried to start it unpluged and nothing.. Note..i can hear the injectors opening after a few seconds which i feel is a good sign because that means the hpop is building pressure, checked for smoke at the stack while turning engine over, no smoke... just loosened fuel line going to pass side head and got fuel, is there some way the injectors are not getting the fuel to them? could an o-ring fail and cause this problem...i havent noticed any change in the oil level since ive changed it..

as far as the IDM goes i dont really think i can get one short of buying one off the web. If it has failed would the injectors still open..
