Uh.. It shouldn't have had spark before the injectors were replaced... If it's not starting you probably don't have it primed.. Prime the filter head.

Have you checked fuses? Do you have access to efi live so you can determine if you are getting adequate fuel psi?

Guys, it looks like he has an LB7, doesn't seem to know a whole lot and just "attempted" to swap injectors...

$10 says he's "making oil"

When you changed injectors did you change the spark plugs? There are 2 per cylinder like a hemi, they are located in the valley behind and above turbo to the left of the DEF tank... Could also be the spark control box, they are very hard to find on a diesel so bear with me... Located under the left motor mount, in the aft oil pan on the starboard side of the cp3 inside the transmission valve body upside down and inverted.

When I had spark issues I checked and redundantly replaced everything...

Then I dug deeper and my worst fears were confirmed...
Yup
It was the Flux Capacitor...
That, and I was low on plutonium, I wasn't making 1.21 giggawatts anymore and the flux capacitor wasn't able to control the injectors duty cycle and as it turns out, a duramax won't fire with anything less than the 1.21 giggawatts anyways

So a quick trip to my local extreme duty electrical supply store and the nearby uranium/plutonium distribution hub and I was ret ta go yo
