    How's the high pressure oil pump reservoir? It's right on the front, top of the engine. If it isn't full, it won't start. You've had the injectors off, so it's probably low.

    I have one of those too!

    Thanks Dave, we did top it off. Right now I'm thinking it might be air locked. Cracked the injectors, and we're trying to get the batteries recharged. It's been one of those projects :crazy:
