2005 lost power, died while decelerating, and now will not start

Wanted to update this tread, because no one ever posts the solutions, just their problems, (at least it seems like it) I ordered BBI stage 1 injectors, just finished the install, and guess what, started right up. No rattle, they are awesome. The truck runs great. Thanks to all that gave me advice, it took a lot longer than I wanted but. It's awesome. Now for a new turbo!!!

Now I have 7 thousand pounds at idle at the rail, and 19 pounds of fuel at the lift pump

Thanks for the update.
Ho ware the BBI's? Any smoke and how are the EGT's?

Well only drove around 45 miles today, but I noticed a little haze, my son said initially on the first start up a big cloud of black smoke. Trans started leaking, I hope it is just because is has not run since end of April and the torc converter was looseing fluid, causing the trans to overfil and leak out the vent. At least that's what happens when I don't drive my Avanti for months.

I meant to say the trans had leaked, while sitting, not after I got it running.
