    I changed the filters on a old type hitachi 6 ton track machine (its got
    4 cylinder isuzu engine as far as i know) and now i can get it to start, its got plenty of diesel but will just turn over and over and wont start.
    I Opened the little nut on injector pump and then the injectors but no luck.
    Was going fine before i changed filters so can anyone advise here please.

    You've either not bled it fully or missed the little filter under the tank. Is there a good amount of diesel coming to the injectors when it is cranking? Also, are all the unions and filters properly tight as it might be drawing in air as it is cranking.

    The little filter under the tank is your man. Remove and clean. Find it by tracing the pipe back to the tank, it's the last stop on the line.
