Default 86 ford f250 6.9 diesel cranks but won't start

Ok my 6.9 diesel has been sitting for about 2 moths and now it won't start it just cranks. Before I parked it I drained the fuel out so I added some freash fuel in it and it just cranks but won't start

Crack the injector lines and crank until you see fuel coming out, while it was sitting willing to bed some air got trapped

Make sure you have enough fuel in the tanks for the pick up tube to reach.
