You must remember, the injector is a MAJOR restriction in flow on the injection system...... Without those, the fuel won't have any pressure.... BUT, we are also talking a miniscule amount of fuel per injection event. One drop per injector line per revolution is about right.........

Sounds like a glowplug issue. I know that my engine, which is in good condition, will not start without glowplugs for anything..... Not even to outrun a car crusher!!
