there is no fuel pressure at the injectors until it is running!! if you remove the air filter and gently push the flap in the metering head down when cranking it over and the fuel should then get up to the injectors

I have cracked the unions off the metering head one at a time and held the air flap down and turned the engine over but still no joy?
