I parked my truck (99 Dodge Ram 1500 5.9L Gas) one night and got up the next morning, it would not start. I can hear fuel pump kick on, has pressure in the fuel rail. I also have spark. If I tested the injector right I don't think I am getting power to them. Is there relay or fuse for them? Is there a way to check to make sure the relay or fuse getting power etc? Also someone had told me to check Emergency fuel shut off for truck but where it be?
Thanks in advance

If you hear the pump, the fuel shut off isn't the problem. Two things you can check. First, use a test light and touch it to the power wire on an injector. The light should pulse. Also, you really need to check the fuel pressure from the tank. You may be getting fuel, but not enough.
