Anybody have a issue with 4wd drive just quiting. I checked the 4 fuses close to steering column on the green board. All good. Anything else I can. Check?

Diesel quality and fuel delivery.

200 is pointing a good direction. If the fuel pump works (fuel squirting out hose), the fuel solenoid is a frequent culprit. Get the tech manual so you know what you're doing. You'll see the solenoid has a temp open on start circuit and a hold open circuit. That hold open burns out first because it's on all the time. So if you get a start while turning the key on and it immediately goes off, that's a good indicator of what the problem is.

After rereading the OP’s post, maybe the 4x4 was what quit and not the engine.

maybe the OP will clarify with a bit more background.

Yes should have explained it better. The 4by4 just stopped working.. what's the most common things I can check. Thanks for your replies

Good fuses doesn’t mean the female connectors they plug into are not loose fitting or corroded.

Verify battery voltage is present at solenoid used to engage locking mechanism on front transaxle.

Thank you for replying. What location is that solenoid ?

Did you resolve your problem? What was the fix?
