    Let me start off with my problems, two weeks ago had to get towed ended up having to replace bull gear, crankshaft timing gear and air compressor. Truck didn't jump timing so pretty easy fix after a week in the cold. Truck ran good a few days then had low voltage the week after, ended up being bad batteries replaced batteries, double checked all connections truck ran fine for a few hours got home and idled for about 25 minutes and truck shut down and wouldn't start! Truck will turn over good and fast just won't start.
    It's a long story of a problem but the short side of the story. Done tried test ecm, Battery connections good, power to ecm. Changed fuel filter, changed trs sensor. Looking for fuel check valve but looks like I don't have one on my truck But its been running fine without check valve!

    Are you saying that your engine has no check valve on the fuel return line on back of the head???

    Does the tach show engine speed when you are cranking it? Do you get the yellow warn engine and red stop engine warning lights coming on at key on? These are both indicators the ECM is powered up properly.

    if it won't start on ether it suggest a no compression scenario. can you hear the compression cycles as it turns over on the starter?
