When the key is turned to the start position, the pump should run for about 20 seconds. Do this 3 or 4 times to prime the pump.

If it still doesn't start, the bad lift pump may have damaged the injection pump. Crack a fuel line loose (don't remove it) and turn the engine over, you should have fuel at the fitting.

Diesel shut down

Is there a possible pin hole in the line that would cause it to suck air? when you fill it past the pin hole it picks up the fuel, just a thot.
