I have a problem with a 4 cyl. diesel.
I think you are also asking for a palm reader but the electrons coming in here are a bit dim to see what you are having a problem with.

Wasn't it clear to you that I wanted to see if there were any diesel guys on here before I posted the problem?
I still don't know if there are any.

Sorry, Charlie, no cigar. Your crystal ball blew a fuse.
OK I'll bite , what are the symptoms ? what make and model engine ?
Your subject line had me thinking that you are a diesel mechanic with a medical problem.
before I type a bunch of stuff, are you a diesel mechanic? Onan engine.
Folks think weird things without much to go on.
I am... what's up ?
I guess I'll shuffle off then...
Fine, Noozer.
I have fuel problems with an Onan Diesel, DJC, 4 cylinder.
Are you familiar with them?

Oh, for cripe's sake, just POST the blasted details already and quit noodling around wasting everybody's electrons and insulting people that ask for more details. Either someone will answer or someone won't. You don't really know that a "diesel mechanic guru" (whatever that might be in your mind) is even necessary, dozens of people on here might know the answer if you'd just POST THE PROBLEM! A diesel is an engine not all that different from any other. Not a box of black magic.
Sheesh.
Why read what you obviously can't handle. Save your electrons and wear your tin-foil hat.
Should be clear from Phillip's post why I don't want to waste time.
Can't get fuel from the injection pump to the injectors. Bled air from lines up to pump.

LOL!
You have already wasted half a day with your BS posts.

Now that you have actually specified a problem....
Is the pump actually turning? (not a silly question)
Do you get any fuel out of the top of the pump while cranking the engine? (pull the lines)
What pump is on this? I think it's a Rossa, but if it's a Bosch or Rochester, you may be able to pull the side plates and make sure the pistons are moving and the rack isn't frozen.
What sort of fuel pressure do you have to the pump?
Have you bled the injector lines?
