If your not getting any smoke, your not getting the injectors firing.

Meaning High Pressure oil is not up to the required 400psi to even fire the injectors...

Or you have a IDM problem.

Need a scanner to check ICP pressures and duty cycle... Also run a buzz test.

My bet is still on a High Pressure Oil issue.

IDM is the injector driver module. It is the electronic device that feeds power to the injectors to make them fire, It is located inside the left front fender by the drivers door. a buzz test is only possible with a tester designed for the powerstrokes. I have an autoenginuity tester which works with a laptop but there are other good scan tools that will do it also. Autoenginuity is the most cost effective and upgradeable tester on the market right now.

where abouts are you located? maybe somebody on here is close to you and can help ya in person, but ya id put a gauge on the hpop and make sure youre getting proper pressure, when mine acted that way first time was hpop second time was hpop and injector orings, but if u can get ur hands on a scanner u wont need the gauge.
