need help no start

truck started fine this morning went to move it couple hours later won't start. It just cranks an cranks not even a chug out of the motor. Glowplugs are energized oil level is good oil is clean, fuel in the fuel bowl fuel pump kicks on when i turn the key. No smoke when cranking coming out the tail pipe. Im thinking CPS? But what else should I look at?

Does the wait to start light come on? If not, check your fuses. If a 30A fuse is blown, unplug the fuel heater plug on the fuel bowl, replace the fuse and see if it starts.

It certainly could be CPS. It could be several other things too, though. Do you have any way to monitor ICP and IPR duty cycle while trying to start, like AE or Torque Pro? If not, you could try disconnecting the ICP sensor and seeing if it will start that way. Where are you located? Maybe someone is nearby and wouldn't mind giving you a hand figuring it out.
