Need more info how did it go wrong eg just went out to it one day and wouldn't start or did it die somewhere ?

try bleeding the injectors (17mm spanner) see if fuel comes out and then report back

run out of fuel?, fuel filter dropped off?, stop solinoid not working?, try cracking an injector and turn it over and see if any fuel comes out. What pump is it?, have you been running on veg oil?

this lot will do for a start.
