Another thing that seems strange is that when it’s cranking over vapor is coming out out of the intake could this lead to my problem?- Hamweld

Good idea I’ll try that it turns over but definitely not fast. I shot some ether down her throat hole last night but it didn’t even hiccup which I thought was strange but I’m learning as I go on this project!!- Hamweld

Checked the FSS it works, cracked a line at an injector got fuel there. The line running from the filter to the IP is leaking took it off to inspect. Can the rubber compression seals be replaced? Should I consider a compression test next?- Hamweld

The terminals are soldered on took them all off and cleaned them then soldered new lugs on the battery end. She cranks over good now I suppose if I had 2 850s she would crank real strong but that’s not an option right now, I’m trying to get it started and running before I really start throwing...- Hamweld

New to me f350 what to do
Ok so I put a new solenoid on the starter it turns over but real slow for about 5 seconds with the battery charger on it I’ve been doing this now all day off and on just too see if anything changes but everything stays the same.
