Don't take this the wrong way, but would you mind explaining exactly WHY you think this? PM me your response if you prefer. I'm just curious why you feel this way after many of us have given good/great advice on what needs to be done to help him get the truck running. I personally have spent time on the phone and IMing with Ken (outside of this forum) to try to help.
I assume that you feel this way because of some of the responses on the last 2 or 3 pages. What about all the advice given on the first 15-16 pages prior to those? If you (or your friends) were disrespected in public (whether to your face or on the internet), wouldn't you become a little "rude" to get your point across and stand up for yourself (and/or your friends)?
Anyways (BACK ON TOPIC) - Ken, just make sure that all the cables are connected correctly and give it a try after it's all back together. Post your results (maybe even another video since then we can "see" what's happening) and "we" can see what advice there is to offer for the next step.

Don't ask me for permission. I'm have no control over anything. I can be "booted" as easily as anyone else. Mike might not be happy with how this thread started going, but it can be turned back around. Don't worry about deleting anything. Just get the thread back on topic and everything will work out fine. Stay focused on getting the truck running.
I don't deserve anymore credit (or attention) than anyone else that has posted here, so please don't "single me out" in any of this. Like everyone else, I am only offering advice to help you try to get your vehicle running.

I know, and I appreciate it, my time is running out slowly, I have to get this show on the road, if I can't get into the navy (god willing I can) I guess I will find side jobs with my truck hauling people's crap across the country

I know I am getting fuel because, when I crack a injector it's sprays fuel, Ken mentioned that if it's not turning fast enough it won't catch... the reason why it wasnt turning fast is because I had one battery and the cable was completely gone (the o terminal) so I replace the o terminal and I am going to put the cable in tomorrow so hopefully it will want to catch or do something I will be happy if it back fires and sputters a little
i agree yours is turning slower than it should, but did you ever look at the thread that i posted and showed how slow mine was turning over but it would still fire off so why shouldnt yours? and mine was turning much slower than yours

IDK, they both are turing too slow.
I just saw your youtube video Ken, and I noticed there was NO RETURN LINE AT ALL between the number 2 and 4 injectors! The return cap on #2 was just sitting there connected to nothing. Have you replaced those return lines, orings, and caps? If not, you will never get that thing to start well. That will cause huge air intrusion and fuel to leak all over the top of the engine.
