Does the tank pump prime for 10 secs at key-on? What happened to the turbo?

Too early to make guesses - still testing; is fuel pump feed fuse 35 [check # with your handbook] live for 10 seconds at key-on?

Check the inertia switch is down and that the fuelling relay has permanent live feeds on pins 11 and 8.

Does yours actually have a tank pump first and foremost? Its rare but mine doesn't, there is a hand primer in the engine bay, which would need priming I would think.

Also have you tried disconnecting the battery for 20 mins? After a major job on mine the engine wouldn't start at all just kept turning over, after lots of head scratching for 2 hours we did the above and started on the first turn.

Not much more you can do on such a complex system; you'll need a good diesel specialist to test the supply relay etc.
