Injector Problems
I recently pulled the plug wires on my '92 F-150, 5.0L to put on another truck. It ran when I pulled the wires then when I went to put new wires and plugs in it would not start. I have spark from the coil and to all of the plugs but the plugs seem not to be getting any fuel. Any ideas would be great.

I hope you did not have to check it 6 times!
Anyway, just to make sure, check it a seventh time: 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8 Distributor rotation: Counterclockwise.
While you are at it, be absolutely sure that your rotor is pointing to #1 when the piston is just before TDC (10 degrees).
If you bought the truck used or someone else previously installed a distributor, your truck may have always been "out of phase" . Just a wild guess.

Here's an update. I parked the truck for a while because I did not have time to work on it. I spent today checking somethings and here is what I discovered. I pull 3 codes 114, 116 and 636. I testesd the ACT and it was fine.
I hear the fuel pump turn on.
I get spark
I remember a couple of months ago that While I was driving the truck started to sputter and act like it was out of fuel. I pulled over to the side of the road and it started after a few minutes. I also have had trouble at times with it running really rough when I first start. It is intermitent though. I didn't give much thought to these because it ran until now.
