A friend bought a boat that had a diesel set in the boat, but not
hooked up. The motor was very stiff so I pulled the injectors, put in
penetrating oil, turned her by hand the next day, then on the starter
and she loosened up alot; but little fuel came out of the
inj pump. I tried again with the two levers on the side of the inj pump
in various positions but still only a very minimal amount of fuel. Am I
missing something?

Further I guess I should have some concern about cylinder surfaces. I
plan to run her abit, and if she doesn't overheat, do a leakdown test.
Any comments?

The fuel in the injector pump has dried up and the sediment left behind is
clogging it up.
the pump will almost certainly have to be stripped down, cleaned and
recalibrated.. not an easy or cheap task... but it wont work till its done.
Sorry
