Default Cant figure this out

No fuel coming from my bleeder valve while running if i try to push it no diesel will come out then the truck will sputter and die. I have lost a huge amount of power going up hills at 10mph floored. New.... Electric full pump, All new fuel lines, New fuel filter, New injectors

It sounds like your lift pump went out.

I agree, it could be your lift pump. Some pictures would really help.

I agree with the lift pump as the problem. Have you rechecked every fuel line connection? Lift pump could be sucking large amounts of air from a bad connection on the fuel line to the pump. Check all connections carefully looking for wet spots which would indicate a leak. Any air leak no matter how minor can cause all manner pr problems with a diesel.
