Service = fuel filters replaced with new.

* Did try to bleed at injectors, no effect.
* Fuel tank is full of fresh diesel.
* Tried WD40, engine cranking seemed to slow.
* Using a HEAVY battery charger 150+ amp.

He is:
* installing lift pump repair kit MB# 000 090 02 10
* Checking fuel level in the large filter = possible fuel starvation
* Checking vacuum shutoff = remove hose and oil fill cap and crank
* Etc, etc, covered other data on the phone.

What did he say happend when he tried the WD40?

Did the Engine even cough or attempt to start?

If the car will not start on WD40 how will rebuilding the Fuel Supply/Lift Pump help?
