Best Answer

put in some fuel and keep cranking on it till it starts, you have air in the fuel system that needs to work its way out

AnswerBleed the fuel lines by loosening an injector line, then crank or manualy prime the engine until fuel sprays out. Retighten the lines and start it. Air in the lines may prevent a diesel form starting so make sure to bleed it out. most owners manuals give the proper procedure for the vehicle.
