OM314 starting

[winmutt]

Anyoen familiar with these? I have one in my L508D based RV conversion. As many of you know I made a road trip to try to get it started without complete success. I was able to get it running on ether only. No fuel seemed to be making it to the injectors. I did not fully prime the system apparently. I did use the hand pump feverishly but did not crack the injector lines or "large 19mm bolt".

Of course when someone mentioned this I spend a good half hour hitting my head on the desk.

I am looking for other suggestions as well. I plan on replacing the hand pump next time as it leaked like a sieve.
