Engine Mechanical problem
1999 Ford F250 V8 Four Wheel Drive Automatic

I just started my truck last month to change the oil, after that cold spell last week, i went to start my truck and it would turn over but would not start up, what would be the first thing to check? It acts like it's not getting any spark to the system. I spayed some carb cleaner in fuel injecters and nothing!

Do below:

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs,coil's resistances,distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
