Dexta fuel system/ engine will not start

I have a diesel '59 Dexta with a pneumatic governer/ injection pump. We recently removed the fuel tank then refitted after restoration, and now
the engine will not start.

We have tried bleeding the system and the fuel flow to the injection pump is good using the manual lift pump, but the flow to the injectors
when turning over on the starter seems poor. It's as if something has happened to the injection pump, but we have not touched it. The fuel
lines to the injectors are clear and everything else seems ok.

Any ideas what the problem could be?

Yeah, Charge your battery.
1. Open each injector line at nozzle.
2. Charge your pump at Hand Pump.
3. Crank and bleed. One injector may bleed and begin firing (engine running- then two) keep this up until bled.

It is best advice to never let system go dry. I learned the hard way with multiple diesels. Always same. Patiently bleed off air.
