Tell us about the truck. What all has been done to it?
Your symptoms could be from low compression, or major fuel system problems.
When you hook up a scan tool during cranking, what does the rail pressure do? What are the actual and desired values?
When it is running, is there any blowby out the oil fill tube? A light puff (some visible vapor but you can't feel air moving) is normal. Anything more than that is not.
