Default 03 Jetta tdi Needs help Died and wont start

I was Driving my friends 03 jetta 1.9tdi the other day went on a 2500 mile trip from indiana to texas and back no problems at all. I got one mile from my exit here in indiana and it died no warning i had the cruise set at 72. At first we thought maybe fuel was an issue so we cracked the injector lines one at a time they all had a good amount of fuel to them. When we retightened the injector line nuts. As we continued to crank it would act like it wanted to start but wouldnt. I removed the oil cap and then it fired up, Like it has to much crank case pressure to even run?


Car has egr delete, bigger injectors and straight pipe
