Hi I haven't personally had this happen , but it has been known to, this could be a few things, normally either the injectors have let to much fuel in ie they are open all the time and when you switch on ignition the barrels fill with fuel and it has hydro locked the engine, best thing to do in this case is, disconnect battery, loosen injector pipes and let the pressure off, reconnect battery then try again, if it does the same you have problems with injectors, another thing that would do it is timing..have you adjusted something that has put the timing off? say replaced the timing belt or something like that?, the other one is, are they the correct size injectors? are they to long? some people make the mistake by buying second hand injectors and find they are from a totally different engine and are to long, and the piston will not travel fully hence it stops and will not go further, but this is a long shot answer, anyway hope its been of some use to you..

Has anyone ever done fuel injectors on a 1993 chevy K3500 p/u w/a 6.5 liter turbo diesel?If so is it hard or something I can do myself?

not a diy project as the injectors have to be calibrated to crack at a specific pressure
Best take it to a professional diesel shop where new tips can be fitted and the calibration done correctly

1997 chevy truck (1500) will start but shuts down after about 8 sec. turn the key off and restart and it does the same thing . fuel pump is putting out, replaced filter!

You have to check your fuel pressure because this fuel system has to have at least 51 psi in order to open the popit valve inside the injector and the pump is weak and drops below 51 psi then the motor will shut down.Your fuel pressure should be 60-66 psi with key on and engine off.

Where are the fuel injectors located on 2001 ford expedition?

Doesn't sound as though you should get involved, working on vehicles

First the sparks plugs are missing,now the injectors,that are looking right at you.
