Farmall 460 D - need a favor Please

So I have been trying to get it to run. Earlier post explained that I changed the fuel filters. But she just won?t start. How can I get the fuel lines off at the nozzle. I have loosed them and cranked the tractor, but no fuel,comes out. One thing I know is # 4 cylinder is getting fuel. When loosing the fuel line, the nozzle came unscrewed and when cranking, I saw fuel. What is my next step. I am about to give up and call a dealer. Please help. Can some send me a picture of how the lines come out or off the nozzle?
 
If you can find someone to assist you safely (or two experienced people) pulling the tractor to get it started is probably easiest, and least hard on the starter. Pulling it in 4th gear with the TA forward at about 5 mph should get it running. If the brakes do not work well enough to atop the tractor ignore this advice. It can take a half mile. Jim
 
first question... is the two fuel filters bleed? that is first. just changing filters not nessesary to loosen lines. but with limited info here ... when loosening lines at injectors you dont have to remove them. i just give them a tap on the side of the line with my 3/4 in. wrench. there is a tapered furrel on the line that fits into injector and they like to stick. if nozzle is coming loose hold noozle with wrench while loosening line with 3/4 in wrench. to save battery and starter just pull the tractor in 4th gear to get fuel from lines. could write a longer story but need to get going.
 
Good news Guys.
Checked all lines and and there was fuel to all of them. Cranked and cranked but would not start. Finally pulled it for several hundred yards. Lots of whate smoke and finally she fired off and ran. So now one step closer. I need to put it all back together. Thank you all.
 
Please don't pull start a TA tractor unless you want to rebuild the TA- they are easily ruined even going down a hill- I have some experience!
