Default I forgot how to start a diesel

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?
