a quick and dirty way to prime is to loosen the fuel line as close to the injection pump as possible and with a with a air blow gun put air pressure in the tank through the filler pipe using a old towel to seal the air, don't get too much pressure in the tank 3 to 5 psi will do. have an assistant tighten the line when you get clean fuel with no air bubbles, it should start after that. also check for fuel leaking any place between the tank and the fuel lift pump.
hope this helps
Thanks 11178adm, That's the same instructions the diesel mechanic gave me. I'll have some help in 3 or 4 days. I'm going to give it a try then.
