How are you priming it? Pull the fuel line off and make sure fuel is getting to the engine. Could be a clogged fuel filter or fuel line.

try a pressure test to see if in fact the fuel pumps are working or not btw i had an 79 f250 which had to have about 3.5 gallions for the fuel pump to pick it up plus if it ran out of gas you had to suck on the fuel line to get the pump to work at all .

you say you have injectors so see if there is gas/pressure at the schrade valve on the injector rack, if so the you may have a fault in the wiring to the injectors.
