If your filter head has an hand primer fitted,leave injector pipes loose at injectors,pump primer with ignition turned on & it will start to run out of inj. pipes.
Crank engine & continue to pump hand primer till fuel spraying out of injector pipes with no air/bubbles then tighten them up should fire up.

If no hand primer do same as above but just fill filter with fuel first,then crank till fuel at injectors then tighten pipes.
A good/fully charged battery is a big help.

does this apply to tdci, is it the solonoids on pump that open with ignition on?
