my ford tractor 6510 wont start?

Initially the starter was faulty and I have had it repaired. I then started the motor only to have it die a few minutes later. I can crank the engine as much as I want but it wont fire up. I have checked the diesel filters, I have also checked the feul pump as I thought that maybe the diaphram was perished. All is fine. I bled the diesel sysytem and made sure there was not air in the system. I eventuall checked to see if the diesel injector to make sure that they where not blocked. still the engine refuses to fire up.

To Matt,
Thanks for your help. I have managed to get my tractor running and it is now back working.

Is there white smoke from the exhaust pipe when you crank the engine?
if there is then check the heater plug in the inlet manifold is working
If no smoke
Make sure the stop cable is not seized up & the fuel pump is stuck in the stop position.
Try to see if there is fuel at the injectors
Carefully unscrew the injector pipe of No1 cylinder just enough for the nut to be loose.
Get some one to sit in the seat & crank the engine over & see if fuel squirts from around the nut.
If it does then tighten the nut & try another pipe. if the same occours then in theory the engine should start.
If no fuel is present then you may have a faulty injection pump or just need to bleed the fuel system again to clear any air out.
You don't say weather the pump is a rotary or inline unit.
