Turbo pipe connected and intercooler clear?
Just a thought, the engine hasn't been turned anti clockwise has it? >_<

But has it been off/set?
I.e. sprocket holder/no turning backwards or pin in wrong hole??

I think it is about time he got someone who knows what they are doing to look at it for him.

For clarity I would like to confirm the following as details are being misread on previous posts:
1. Both the timing and the FIP have NOT been touched at all. I have NOT touched or altered any timing on the chains or FIP.
2. Only the lift pump in the tank has been replaced, bled, injectors bled, no starting.
3. It luckily started but running was bad chucking out thick black smoke.
4. Nanacom confirmed ECU and BeCM are synced. I cannot run Nanacom if the engine does not start or run long enough?
So either the timing has jumped somehow on worn chains, cylinder letting oil by or worn valve seats or some form of engine damage without me altering anything.
I need to diagnose that the FIP is not the issue as anything from this back to the fuel tank has been ruled out. I am waiting for a member to come a fit a refurbed FIP to rule this out.
Once FIP is ruled out then we will investigate engine damage or timing.
I suspect the FIP is at fault and there is a worn cylinder.
Yes commenting on getting someone know what they are doing, yes that is why I am member here appreciating everyones help, I would not even attempt looking at timing or touching anything without getting the required help or expert advice.
I will update once refurbed FIP has been fitted and engine started. I will consult a diesel specialist near me at worse case.
I am happy to have a private message or telephone discussion with anyone who has had this issue as I am trying to do my best on money I have.
Many thanks again.

It will still start on 3 glows if you are lucky with the right ones.
It started on Easy Start, so if it was Glow plugs it should have continued to run.
3 consecutively firing cylinders with good plugs.

Will do cheers matethanks for clarifying details, let us know how you get on
If you've any doubt about timing, if you have or can get a timing kit for the 38'. It may be a good move to check all is In place.
I.e. camshaft and fly wheel timing. If you can rule that out then the pump static timing should be checked as well. Maybe loose nuts on the fuel pump flange or if the engine has been wound backwards and jumped a cog. But before removing or condeming the fuel pump, check your timing.
