Shouldn't be a TD in that? Nad is the correct one but regardless...
Have you got the ignition on? Fuel stop solenoid needs 12v to let the fuel through.

i was also puzzled why a turbo was in there too! but anyways
Yeah the ignition is on so fuel should be passing through !

This is not a good way to do it but if you're desperate it just might work; it has done for us in the past. Loosen 2 pipes at injector end and then tow vehicle down road, if it starts firing on the remaining cylinders you've cracked it. It is a savage way to do it but as I say it's worked for us on various vehicles and didn't seem to damage anything.

Are you hand pumping it if so pump is probably on high spot on cam spin it with starter and then try again if still no pressure put it in gear and push to slightly turn engine.
Lever travel should improve once off cam.
If that does not cure it pump is sucking air or US

Open all the injectors and get someone to crank engine, close injectors as fuel without air emerges.
