OK guys, this morning our '95 Suburban diesel wouldn't start. Besides all the times we had trouble shortly after we got it, this is the first time it hasn't started right up. Outside temp was about 40 degrees. I've verified that the lift pump is working, changed the filter and bled off the air. Also drained the filter housing too. Still no start up though. So, I figure it can only be one of three things--1) injection pump failure 2) faulty glow plug relay or 3) faulty stop solenoid. I figure I'll crack an injector line tomorrow to see if the pump is putting out any pressure. Not sure if the glow plug system would cause the 6.5 not to start up but I do know our 2001 Ford power stroke wouldn't crank in Idaho Falls one cold winter morning when the glow plugs failed to work--but that time the exhaust was putting out tons of white smoke. This time, I'm not seeing any smoke while cranking...if anyone has any suggestions or words of wisdom from similar experience, please pass them on. I'm hoping maybe it's not the injection pump, as with Christmas coming up we don't need a large expense! Thanks to all for any advice offered.

Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
