I have never seen it happen, but have read on obn that if the return somehow gets stopped up between the motor and the tank, that the idi will not crank.

Replacing the return lines might have had a minor resealing effect on the seals for the injectors ... Maybe ... Never know ... Stranger things happen when ya jiggle things around a bit ...
