I have an XLT model. I have fuel spraying out of the shrader valve on the fuel rail and both wires on the injectors have power with key on. When attempting to start with test light probed in wires the light is not flashing. The truck will not start and shut off on the side of the road. I have not been able to get it started since. I can get it to crank with starting fluid. I have checked the relay and ICM both are functioning properly. Kind of stumped on this.

Does the ignition have spark? If so I would check the power and grounds to the PCM.

Here is a guide and the wiring diagrams to help:

There is a PCM relay that runs the system I would check that.

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
