HELP truck won't start

I have a 2005 F250 P/S, I parked it at work yesterday and it won't start today. I'm stranded. I can hear fuel pump, It cranks but won't fire. One time it started for just a couple seconds. What can I check? I am in San Antonio if anyone is in the area.

Thanks

2005--I'm betting your STC fitting on the HPOP gave it up. There is an upgraded fitting for it and if you're under 100K miles it's should still be under warranty. The other thing might be your FICM. If you can get it scanned for codes please do so and report back.

miles

140,000 miles. If I cycle the key with the lower fuel filter off should fuel come out? Maybe teh noise I heard was not the Fuel pump. No codes

You would need to check the whole HPO system for a leak which requires a fitting and compressor to pressurize it with air. To check for fuel it's easier to remove the lid of the secondary fuel filter under the hood. When you say no codes did you scan it or it doesn't have a check engine light?
