I'm having trouble getting it to start. Its been sitting for 15+ years, low hours on it. I,ve drained all of the old deisel out and rplaced with new. Bled the system through the 1st filter, secondary filter. Then thru pump and back to final filter, back to injector pump. I have fuel all the way to check valve on injector pump, but cant get anything out and thru lines to injectors. Pulling my hair out at this point, any help or ideas would greatly be appreciated.
 
I had that problem once on a UB Diesel. We bled
everything, including the return lines, and still no
luck. Chained it to another tractor and pulled it 25
feet and we had fuel. Sometimes the starter motor
just doesn't spin it fast enough I guess...

Hopefully the shafts didn't snap for the injection pump hydraulic head I've had that before and it is very expensive.
 
Pull the the Fuel shut cover off and make sure that the lever
moves freely with the govnor speed rod. I will would run a
double amount of fuel conditioner in it for a while.
 
Follow G706's advice, pull the shot off cover off of the side of the pump (The one with the two screws holding it on). Make sure it isn't stuck back in the shutoff positon. You can also take the cover off that sits on top of the governor housing(four bolts) and make sure the linkage moves freely back and forth, just don't drop anything in there.
 
I had the same problem with my gbd. Fuel pump was bad. Got
one that was rebuilt, and it runs fine now. Very expensive, but
worth the money.
