Help with 1st gen! won't start.

I'm pulling my hair out. Don't know what I did wrong. I have a 93 12valve and the injection pump started to leak. I had the pump rebuilt here in town and i followed all the instructions I could find to reinstall it. I also replaced the transfer pump at the same time. I can't get it to start. How can i tell if there is still air in the lines, or if I installed the high pressure lines in the wrong order. I hooked them up in the firing order 153624 and iv'e tried different combos seeing if I did it wrong. No luck. I found TDC with the timing pin, I even pulled the #1 valve cover and double checked to make sure both rocker arms were up. I've bled every line possible. I've tried every combo possible to bleed it. Now I'm discouraged. How do you tell if there is still air in it? How do I tell if its the pump timing? Everybody is too busy to help for about 2 weeks unless I take it to the dealer. (YUCK). Any insight or ideas would be helpful, im a fish out of water without the truck for work. Vance
