Default ford xld marine conversion

Hi all,
I am currently marinising a 2002 ford endura diesel van engine.
I have bypassed the PATS system by fitting a new single wire stop solenoid, the engine starts runs for a small time then stops. To start it I have to pump the fuel filter and it will fire into life again if I keep pumping the primer the engine will carry on running. Anyone any Ideas???? I have read where people have bypassed the PATS but had to alter the pump timing I am not sure why.
Also if you look behind the pump where the wires come out there is a linkage that is not connected to any thing any ideas what this was for.
I have ordered an electric fuel pump to put in just before the injector pump to see if the engine will keep running with this. I have read that the injector has an inbuilt lift pump is this totally mechanical driven or does this feature in the PATS circuit anywhere.
thanks John

Pretty sure the pump is also coded to the pats system so will need bypassing.

I new the pump was coded but i believed it just to be through the stopn solenoid on the pump the original stop solenoid has four black wires that plug into the loom I took off the cover plate removed this solenoid and fitted a single wire stop solenoid this is working and allowing fuel into the pump what else is coded on the pump ??
thanks John
