i pump and pump the primer button and it never seems to get hard to pump...it ran like crap for about 10 seconds with my foot almost to the floor. I have nerve damage and bad arthritis in my left hand and no pain killers so dont know how much longer i can work on it. im not sure if i losen the big nut above the injectors or those little bolts that run to the side of the injectors. but if it ran then shouldnt it have self bled?

Yeah it sounds like you have a preheater leak. I highly doubt your lift pump is bad, my friend had 400k on his truck and his lift pump still ran like a champ. If its your lift pump its a cheap fix they are like 90 bux at Diesel Performance Parts Power Chips Diesel Exhaust Intake Performance Products I would check them out for the fuel heater gasket to.
