Bleeding a 5000D

Ok, I had the injector pump rebuilt(CAV) put everything back and I can?t get it started! Getting fuel to all but one injector and of course I am getting fuel to the pump. I am about ready to pull it off! Any ideas or something I missed?
Thanks,

Did you crack bleeder on pump while cranking?
If you but a hose on the injector supply line and crank is there any fuel at all that comes out?

Sometimes those pumps need the injector lines tightened on the ones WITH fuel, to get fuel to the injectors without. What brand fuel filter? And if WIX/NAPA did you make the common mistake of the extra O ring placed in the filter top outer groove? That's the fuel inlet and MUST be open..
