Are you trying to start it with the bonnet open

I had a similar problem with mine. I was getting fuel at the injectors but it turned out not enough fuel. and it was the sender in the tank that wasn't letting enough through. I'd check the fuel sedimentor first though it is located on the inner side of the chassis rail just behind the rear wheel, it just screws off. It may have water in it. What makes you think its a fuel problem? If the engines not getting enough air you would have the same symptoms! Then it may be the intercooler pipes perished on the inside.

close the bonnet then give it a try, Reason being there is a switch next to the
screen washer bottle so when you close bonnet it closes switch, well it does on mine good luck.
is it auto or manual? does it puff any smoke out of the exhaust when its turning over?
if its auto there is a mod that you can do but you will have to do a search on the forum on how to do it.
if its a manual and it puffs smoke out when trying to start it is probably duff heater plugs or heater plug relay so you will need to see if you have power to the heater plugs when you switch on the ignition.

you have but that doesnt mean it works ,front banjo holds fuel feed pipe to injection pump its often a good idea to fit a clear plastic pipe in this pipe somewhere between pump and filter so you can see if theres any air in fuel the front banjo is also the best place to bleed system

the big issue with sender is usually rust on the steel pipes allowing air to enter feed to lift pump (lhs pipe)sedimentor can block or corrode and let air in ,but have you piped lift pump up corectly ,is it working, it contains 2 one way valves ,is lever on top of cam not under it
