Anybody familiar with these cat engines and the fuel pump/injection
system?
Sorry, no.
Starts up on ether, but still no fuel. Tried to use the primer pump
at the filter, but either it is rusted up or hard to press because of
fuel pressure.
....
If the hand primer worked, i could crack the line out from the filter
and see if fuel is there.
How about cracking the line out from the filter and running it a short
time on ether to see if there is fuel there (positioned with a wrench, of
course to tighten the line if there should be a geyser of fuel)?

I was just going to crank it. if none cranking, then we can see what
happens with a shot of ether. THere won't be anyone with a wrench
to tighten it up. if it leaks fuel, the fuel will leak. its a ways
form the cab to the fuel filter, and I only have me.
