I have to ask, are you sure there is plenty of fuel in the tank, not going by the fuel gauge. You said #3 was the only one clean, are the others foamy? If you have plenty of fuel, and the other injectors are foamy, then you will need to bleed the system. You may have an air leak between the fuel tank and the pump. Add 5 gallons of fuel to your tank first, then try to bleed the non-clean injectors.

THere is just a seep out of the other lines there seems to be good presure up to the injector pump just nothing coming out of the pump

That's pretty much the standard scenario.
"I left a red light kinda hard when I let off my truck died and now will not start."

Many an Injection Pump has gone Toes Up just like that with a fueling box installed.

Why Injection Pumps Fail
