Make sure your battery is fully charged. D's take more cranking power than a gas motor.

External fuel supply is a good idea. Do make sure your return line is attached to your external supply.

The manual fuel pump is low on the block, drivers side, and you unscrew it to make it useable. Pump until you get fuel coming out of the return line.

Screw the pump back down before you start the motor. 17mm open end will allow you to confirm no air is at the injector by just cracking it and getting fuel drip.
