1996 F350 wont start
Hello everyone being new to the powerstroke i am having a difficult time running my problem down. The motor will crank over fine but will not start and I am begining to loose my mind on it and dont want to continue throwing money at this. It hasnt run in almost a year and it was hit or miss before it was parked as to when it wanted to run before. Heres a list of what I have already done to it and would welcome any suggestions...
1. new batteries
2. changed cps
3. changed glow plugs and relay
4. checked oil level in engine and hpop res.
5. made sure I have at least 10psi on oil pressure for low side
6. new fuel filter and fuel heater
7. fuses are all good under dash and in engine bay
8. new ipr valve
9. checked fuel pressure at schrader valve when cranked for 20 secs and have 30 psi
10. new fuel pump
sorry for the long post but I wanted to allow you to see what i have tried to eliminate thanks for the help.

the only thing I have thrown at it so far is the new batteries and fuel filter and heater the rest of the parts were already with the truck when I got it the previous owner bought and never put on as he was tired of messing with it. I am near springfield missouri

i did check the cps wiring today and all of the wires check out with the right ohm readings and volts except one the ohm reading is right but the voltage with the key on is supose to be 12 volts + or - .5 and I am only getting .75 of a volt at the sensor I believe it is a green wire that runs from the pcm
