Having trouble getting my 2lte to run. Have taken the glow plugs out and no fuel is coming out when starting. Cracking injector lines has fuel squirting out. Both pump and injectors were reconditioned not long ago. People are quoting 500 bucks just to bench test the pump and record the pressure coming out. I'm at a loss on what to do next that isn't gonna cost me the whole value of the car. If you have any advice or know anyone that has a spare pump to borrow or has the equipment to test mine I would happily compensate.
 
So, no fuel at the injectors, but fuel at the lines? Have you verified there is no fuel squirting out of each injector? Contaminated fuel could clog them. Culprits could be rust in the gas tank, nasty fuel filter, etc. These mechanical pumps don't often fail all at once... if its pushing fuel through the injector lines, the truck should at least start and run, although maybe not well.

Even if the injectors were recently reconditioned, I would still look there first.
