Cant get Nothern Lights Generator to start

So far i have been following the bleeding procedure and I got the fuel to show up at the inlet of Injection pump. Manual states that if engine does not start after typical bleeding procedure, you crack the injectors, and use primer lever to get fuel to each injector line one at the time.

Well I cant get the fuel to come out of injector line nuts. Ive been pumping for a while. I also tried cranking with injector nuts loose.

This generator has been sitting for 2 years. I did personally witness it starting when i went to look at the boat prior to purchase. It was somewhat winterized 2 years ago. Namely only RV antifreeze was pumped through the raw water side. But oil and fuel filters have not been changed.

I am not very familiar with these and any experience or advice would be appreciated.
