1988 4.9 cranks won't start.
Okay y'all I have a huge problem. I was driving a few months ago and my truck died. I didn't know it or feel it. Came to a rolling stop. Went to crank the truck back up and it was hydro locked. Before I realized this I still tried to crank it finally broke free the stopped trying. So I towed it home. I was reading and looking around and realized my cylinders been washed by fuel. So I was thinking it was a leaking injector. So I took off the intake manifold dumped about a quart of fuel out of it took the injectors put all worked good and no leaks. I then replaced the orings and all out them back. Drained the oil and about another quart of fuel out of the oil pan. I was suspicious about it but I took the plugs out and put some oil in the cylinders maybe a stuck ring. I also looked into the plug hole with a camera and could not really see anything nothing broken or metal on top. So I Put it all back together and was cranking and boom locked up again I did not try anymore after that any help suggestions or anything would be awesome thanks.
