My 7 started up fine this Morning but Now she won't start?!?!

My FC3S started up fine and perfect this morning but now she won't even start at all? I'm wondering why she won't turn on at all. She's cranking but it won't start? I checked the fuel filter and the fuel pump everything is alright. She reads 8 volts on the gauge. The starter is doing it's job but the engine won't start at all?

What else could have cause the 7 not to start at all? Did I miss anything?

rotarydriver108, I appreciate you helping me out but where can the fuel injection fuse be located? Under the Steering wheel or the one under the Hood?

no its not the fuse fault its sumtimes motor gets flooded wit gas so therefor u must unflood it
heres step
1. pull out 30a egi fuse
2. crank car with pauses between cranks for idk 5-10 minutes
3. put fuse back in
4. start car
hopefully thats ur problem
