the fuel system is a real git to bleed out as there is no lift pump,all i can advise is filling fuel filter with diesel and cranking the engine over untill the high pressure pump draws fuel through to injectors,you may need to crack the injector pipes off to help bleed the air out,if you can get hold of an electric inline pump and connect it to fuel filter to draw fuel through,

When you say you took the wrong fuel out did you also remove the fuel lines to ensure you got all the petrol out as the pumps on these do not like any contamination in them at all and will refuse to start until they are happy.
