Thanks for the Intro Ridge(couldn't resist)

If you hear a load clunk when you engage the starter, you may have hydraulic ed the engine. Check your oil level, see if its over full. See if you can rotate the engine over by hand, it won't be easy, you may have to use a pull bar on the crank bolt. I've seen the 6.5's stick an injector, that lets it fill teh cylinder full of fuel, you can't compress liquid. Some times if you let it sit over night, teh fuel will leak past the rings and let you start the engine, but as soon as it starts up, it will be filling the cylinder with fuel. I saw it happen in a street sweeper that stuck tow injectors at WOT, when they backed off the throttle, it was like a grenade went off, parts went everywhere, the crank shaft came out in pieces
