John Deere 490D starting problem

My 490D will start right up but dies after a few seconds. Already replaced fuel lift pump. What next, injectors or maybe injector pump shaft seals? Any help appreciated.

    1 banjo filter? 2 disconnect line after main fuel filter and direct into bucket then turn motor over and monitor fuel flow 3 bleed line at injector a leak in the upper fuel line doesn't so much leak fuel as it does suck air. check and replace gaskets

    Thanks for reply. Ended up having injector pump rebuilt. Runs fine now.
