Fordson Major Tractor - Fuel Problem

No air in lines, fuel manually or with power pumps to right under lines that go to jets at the bleed nut located there; But the fuel is not exiting into the jet's fuel lines or to jets. Not a drop (even opened all lines - nothing)

Normally, I can hand pump the fuel right up the line to the jet to bleed there but that is not happening.

Any suggestions?

Thank you.
 
Stop cable now returning to run position
would be the first thing I'd check. Does
the injection pump have enough oil in it?
They require their own oil to the level
plug about half way up the pump. It could
be the fuel rack is stuck in the off
position if it low on oil, it may have
gummed up.

Thank you. It was the stop pin inside the housing that froze up and was sticky. I did not know it moved back and forth freely and for awhile I was pulling it out, where it would stick (where some fuel was noticed coming out the pipes to the jet), and push it in where it would stick. Finally, on it's own accord it loosen up from moisture (snow storm) and me tugging and pushing it; then it began to freely "float" in and out as necessary to govern the idle and allow the fuel to flow....which was good because I was running out of cans of starter fluid.... ha!
