Evening all, ran out of diesel on Tuesday, we put 2 gallons in, noticed and repaid chafted filter outlet pipe, and cracked injectors. Drove okay 23 miles back home. 9 hours later it wont start at all. On checking, wasn't getting fuel to the filter. Blew through pipes, checked fuse and tank pump connections, was able to manually syphon fuel up to the filter. Still no joy in starting tho. Is there a relay or 2nd fuse to find ? anyone else had similar probs ? Regards.

Have you actually tested the tank pump? Sounds to me as though it has failed.
