hi mate if the pump timing & crankshaft timing is spot on there is no reason why it should not start using the heating system provided providing you got good compressions on all cylinders & your injectors fuel filters fuel injection pump is in good working order also check fuel lines unions for leaking fuel as air gets in dificult to start i had 2 ford a series diesels both york lumps had no problems starting also a good strong battery or slave battery helps too .... :D
