will not start 2004

Low voltage dtc on all 8 injectors.When I replaced the batteries I got it started and it ran great. I test started it twice more that night, started great. The following morning the fuel had drained back out of the system. Now it would not start. Ok here is what I have done .New fuel filters, oil and filter change, new batteries (which fixed the low voltage problem!), new HFCM cap and Oring, new Oring on drain for HCFM, new Oring for upper fuel filter. I do not seem to be getting fuel to the injectors. I cycled the fuel system 5 times and tried to start it and it almost fires and then just rolls over. I alleviated the bubbles in the fuel, so now I am at a loss with what it could be. ANY ideas from anyone????? I am STRUCK dumb!

you probably have a leak in one of those spots where air is getting into the system...pull the upper fuel filter cap and filter..have someone turn on the truck and watch the bowl fill...pay attention for air bubbles....look closely at the F/F o-ring to make sure it isn't damaged..
