Ron,
DRMO's have been known to lie about the last time a truck ran, they did on
mine, it sat for 6 years.
Pull the timing window cover off of the side of the injector pump, move the
lever that the kill pull hooks into forward and while you are there to pull
it back, have someone else try to start the truck.
If this is the problem the truck will over-rev and you will have to kill it
fast.
This was the problem on mine.
If it works to start it let me know and I will find the TM and page #s so
you can fix it.

Subject: [MV] M35 starting problem
I have an M35A2 with a non turbo LD 465-1C that won't start. Pump in tank
is working. I get a good stream of fuel at air purge valve on top of
secondary fuel filters. When I loosen the injector lines to the injectors
(one at a time) while cranking, we only get a dribble or two out, no spray.
You can see fuel flowing through the clear plastic line to the flame heater
when the heater switch is toggled. Would clogged secondary fuel filters
give this type of symptom, or could this indicate a problem with the
injection pump? DRMS personnel say they drove it into place about 6 to 8
months ago, and it ran fine. Fuel tank is almost full and primary filter,
when drained at petcock, is clear, clean fuel. While cranking, the stack
gives off puffs of white smoke.
