Fuel cap will start to get clogged on diesels, and it puts a vacuum on the tank and prevents diesel flowing into the fuel pump at high RPM, and you get a starvation issue. a $9 fuel cap will fix that. If that makes no changes, of course make sure the air filter is clean, then inspect fuel feed from tank to filter.

Got it running right. There was air in the injector line that the previous owner had changed before it was shipped. Thats how I figured what it was after blowing air through fuel line made no change.
