Default my brothers 01 won`t start

My brother`s 01 won`t start. It started this morning, he drove a mile and it quit. The fass pump is working, the fuel filter is new, the injector pump is a year old. No codes. Everything else is stock. What could it be? Kevin

The key trick should work on it.

Nothing came up on the scanner either. So assuming that everything is ok he loosened the lines on the injector pump and that did it. Turned out air got in it. I think a loose line before the fass pump caused the problem. So he changed both fuel filters and checked/tightened all the connections and all in well. Thanks guys. Kevin
