Diesel engine hard to prime

Hi can anyone help I have changed the fuel filter and now engine won't prime up its a 2.3 gm. The hand primer button is hard as it should be and I have cracked an injector off but still won't start I have never had this problem before. The stop solenoid seems ok as it clicks when power is added. Could it be a weak or broken lift pump do they suddenly fail? Is thare a way of testing lift pump?Cheers John

Did you fill the filter with fuel before you fitted it?
