I agree with Tech II, try starting with the MAF disconnected. The PCM isn't saving that code for no reason. Also note if the tach moves up from zero while you are turning it over. If it does, then likely your crank sensor is okay. Checking for spark would be good, but it is easier to spray something into the intake as a test, then check for spark after if needed. It would be good to check fuel pressure. A weak pump will deliver fuel, but not enough pressure to do much good.

There'* only air and timing missing from the needed components for the power stroke. Something seems off.

What is the fuel pressure being delivered to the rail?

Thanks for letting us know what fixed it.
