Ok, i just went and cracked the final fuel filter, and im getting plenty of fuel there. so i shut it, and cranked her over but still nothing. and the stack looks clean, no smoke so it must not be getting any fuel. but why would it run just fine when i started it on ether?:?:

Ya the more i think about it thats what i think, cause when i pulled the flame heater unit out, it drained the return line i belive (the plastic line that runs on top of the injectors that "T"'s in to the flame heater). but it filled back up when i started it on ether. now you said crack the...
