How did you come the the injectors going bad, and how are you able to tell that it's going lean?

I just purchased the truck to replace the one my son crashed & totaled. It started hard (turned over 7-8 timesn befor starting. I changed all fluids,plugs,wires,fuel filter,cap & roter. the old plugs were white almost chalkey which makes me think its lean. with the changes it starts rite up but seams weak for a 460
thanks for any help

Here's a test you could try; turn the key over 3 times in a row (listen for the fuel pump to cycle on and off), so that the fuel pump primes the lines, and then try to start it.

It's very rare to have all of the injectors go bad (at one time) unless the truck has been violated in some way shape or form.
