I have new rebuilt L series diesel.
This 5L has just been rebuilt. It cranks wells and it’s getting fuel.
I’ve been chasing this no start for a couple days. First issues was that I installed the injectors wrong with no seals and seat.
• Fuel: the injectors are all bled. New seat and gaskets. Injectors were removed as working fine
•Power/Spark: The two batteries have been on tender and are fully topped off. I wait for glow plug light to turn off before trying to start. New glow plugs showing up tomorrow.
I even threw a ground from the battery to engine block with a jumper cable, to see if it was a ground issue
•Air: Intake is off and it’s getting air. Butterfly valve is open. Throttle cable is not fully installed, spring for accelerator cable assembly went missing and I have new one inbound.
