fuel filter change and no go

'87 300 sdl, changed both fuel filters. System should auto purge but I did fill spin on with diesel purge before replacing. Won't start!
I did crank up to ~1 min as owners manual states and let starter rest ~15 min before retrying. NO GO!
I'm trickle charging battery now, counting the hours before Monday am work time.
Should I manually purge thru fuel pump side to prime? Is this possible?
All help appreciated
