i think your glow plug is messed or not working right. it might be half burnt out where its enough to burn the mixture of idle but cant handle the full throttle fuel. try a new glow plug. how that helps

Hi, It sound like it's running lean. If you got it used you don't know where the other guy had the needle settings at. I like to set them back to factory setting, and retune it my self.
Don't forget check the idle setting. Good luck.

Did you break the truck in?

my idea if it doesn't crank is maybe stuck at "top dead center"...do you know what that is?...if not..."tdc" is when the piston is stuck at the top of the head and wont move...to fix this, take out your glow plug and try to start it... if the piston moves, then your problem is else where but if it doesnt, give it a 1 sec burst of wd40 and that might do the trick
