After cleaning the fuel tank, engine does not work
what's happening exactly?
We clean fuel tank then we return it
the engine work first when I put my leg on the pedal, when I raised the my foot on the pedal the engine turned off alone

I thick that when we take out fuel tank the diesel fail down from the engine and the air come in
we take the D'max to Mechanical to remove the air and he do so
there is no air now in the engine and it still don't work

another Mechanical say that the problem in the diesel Filter (he mean that we assemble the fuel tank the filter take the dirts ) he fix it put the engine still don't work

we examine the vehicle by a computer specialist and the result there is no problem

help me please :(

I cant say for sure what fuel system you have as we in America don't have Toyota diesel but ive worked on plenty of diesels and they all work the same. Did the fuel tank have an electric pump? If so check for plugs properly plugged in. Check for blown fuses and pull the fuel pump relay and smell it for burning smell. Pull the fuel filter out and turn the key and see if any fuel comes out. Also make sure all the lines are hooked up properly. If you have a manual primer make sure that its tight and hard to squeeze.
