Please help, Jetta ALH 2000 No Start

[Tdifan1278]

Yesterday I bought a 5 Speed 2000 Jetta ALH TDi with an EGR delete, I went to pick it up, hopped in started her up, fired right up with no issues. Drove it to the auto parts store to get a brake light bulb. Turned it off there, bought the bulb, got back in and it started no problem, then stopped at a friends house, turned it off, started up no problem, then I parked it in my heated Garage where it sat over night. Now this morning it will not start, it cranks and sputters for a half second and then just keeps cranking, the rpms still move on the cluster when it cranks, I tried disconnecting the battery and waiting incase it was immobilizer. No luck. I believe it’s getting fuel as it’s smoking. I have a basic OBD2 reader that I use on my MK6 and it won’t read the mk4 for some reason. any help is extremely appreciated.

I'd Crack a few injector lines and crank.it over to see if your getting fuel. Could be a slow leak that's caused you to lose prime sitting over night.

I had fuel coming out of the injectors. All 4. Now my immobilizer light is on though

Welcome to TDI Club!
This is your cars way of telling you how grateful it is that you adopted it, and is now inviting you to get to know it better
Here is the canonical no start thread. It should help.
Highly recommend you purchase VCDS as it will pay for itself and save you loads of time and money if you plan on keeping your VW's for a number of years.

See post #8 in the above no start thread.
