just saw that you have a facet pump, did you install it the right way? i dont mean to insult you, but ive done this and in the conditions youre working in, could very easily be installed bass akwards.
i got a stupid question, did you take the hard line off of the filter to the lift pump?
does it have fuel coming out of there?
perhaps a bad lift pump???
would be pretty comical if they replaced a IP due to a bad lift pump........
Remember to take breaks between cranking for the health of the starter and glow plugs. Clearly without making a change in the engine compartment there is no point in cranking the engine anyway. I am curious about the clear hose you have on there. Is it airtight? Did you try cranking with the stock metal line on? Do you have all the injector line nuts cracked at the injectors or at the pump? Is there fuel leaking from the pump? Underneath the pump into the pan?
Sounds like you're checking the obvious just be patient, you'll figure it out!
So, these mechanics installed all these new parts but didn't start the truck? Seems unlikely. Wouldn't they start it to pull it out of the garage? Hell, if you put a new pump and injectors on a truck wouldn't you want to fire it up?! Anyway, my point is it's possible they installed the pump wrong and f'ed it up.
Around here a junkyard will sell an IP for 40-50 bucks. If it gets to the point of throwing parts at it you can pick one up to test with at least.
The lady informed the shop I bought it from that she was not going to pay or so the shop owner told me. He said they dropped their tools and drug it out into the lot behind the shop. I do not think it was run because the right half of the injector lines were loose, the ip bolt cover was missing and the injector line clamps were sitting on the ip. I guess it could be a bad pump but I am not giving up quite yet. I did not buy the facet yet due to the mech pump looked pretty new and I wanted to be sure it at least turned over, which it does. If this is a bad ip I will have to have a look at the junkyard and see if I can find a used one. We'll see tomorrow.
Well I don't really wanna go all the way back and check.
So to see if the FSS is working, remove the return line from the pump and see if fuel comes out with cranking/fuel pump running.
Actually I just went back and read, you haven't yet.
Ifn it isn't working right, will probably take forever to get the air out, if ever.
Also fix that little weep there, could be fighting all your progress with air intrusion.

Our hay is late due to snow so I pulled the check valve and still no fuel. there is a metal pin that is protruding from the small opening at the bottom of the well that the check valve inserts into. I will try and post a photo.
