No Start

So I pulled my 2005 F350 King Ranch 6.0 in January, Cam was shot along with the lifters, total rebuild , .20 overy pistons, rods, reconditioned heads, stage 1 cam, hd lifters, new valve train components, pushrods. Reassembled very carefully, got it back in the truck Sunday, I have a No Start, engine seems like no compression, KOEO ;Ficm 48.5v, ICP .2v, IPR 14.7, .
KOECRANKING ; Ficm 48.0v, ICP 1.6v, IPR 81%-38%, something around 64%, rpm 186,Ficm sync 1.0, Cam vs Crank Sync 1.0, HPOP 1500+, fuel pulse width 1200+. This is driving me crazy, this is the first engine in over 35 years that has never started for me.....thanks anyone .... Dave

Is it building oil pressure?

Yep, builds over 1500 while cranking, but drops very fast when I stop, not sure how fast it's supposed to, I know it doesn't hold it indefinitely, it's not supposed to do that, I had a problem with a standpipe O ring, replaced it, not sure if that would be it, since it's building good HPOP.

Glow plugs/GPR? I'm treating this simplistically as a cold start problem.

I think you must have some compression in the engine since your RPM when trying to start is 186. And from what I have learned, that should be enough. And it would likely be somewhat higher if you had no compression.

The other numbers look OK to me, but I will think on this and maybe contribute more.

Do you have an IDS or FORScan you can do an injector buzz test with?

I have a Mechanics stethoscope, wondering if I put it near an injector, when someone turns the key on would work? ??

If you have torque pro that tells me you have an elm adapter which will work with ForScan.org Download it to a laptop and your good to go.

Does it "try" to start (as in sputter but not catch)? I agree all numbers indicate a 6.0L that should start and run, by what you've posted thus far. If you loosen off the cold side CAC tube at the intake elbow, spray a bit of Brake Parts cleaner and try to fire it up and see what happens.

Just wondering if all the cranking, maybe something could have changed the ECM ? If so how would I know and how to test it.

Try what m-Chan68 suggests and spray brake clean not ether into the intake and see if it will fire. This very well could be a fuel issue. Does the fuel bowl on top of the engine fill quickly with fuel?
