Synchmate is your next step, if that doesn't work pm Irishrover as you may have a corrupted BECM

Crack all injectors open get someone to crank engine, close injectors as they get fuel. It may start half way through so beware. Fuel pump only runs with glow plugs or when engine is cranked or with engine running. You will need a decent battery for this.

my rr just did not start one morning do you think it may have air in the system? or the method you have just mentioned
is that to see if i have fuel getting to injectors
i did not crank engine when i undid 1st two injectors i just undid two and there was no diesel at all so came straight on landyzone for help

There won't be until engine is turned and injection pump starts to send it. If you fitted a new in tank pump there maybe air in the line and or injection pump, undo banjo union on pump at end of clear pipe slightly just enough for fuel to flow. Get someone to sit in car and switch ignition on, whilst glow plug light is on pump should run. Keep doing this until no air is left clear pipe tighten banjo. Then crack injector pipes open slightly. Get someone to crank engine as fuel gets to injectors shut pipes off it should start partway through that.
