If the person who repaired the pump ran it on a test bench it should prime up readily, but if he did not have a test bench it will take a whole lot of spinning that engine to get fuel through to injectors. I would take off the fittings at the injections nozzles and give it a good pull as this will save you a ton of cranking with the starter.
