[diesel_mercedes] Re: Help bleeding fuel system after filter replacement

 

I'm assuming that you used the primer pump to fill the fuel filter,
until diesel runs out at the top of the filter, usually I just not fully
tighten the center bolt on top until it's full. If the filter was full,
you shouldn't have needed to purge the lines. I'd start back at the
filter, and make sure it's full, then start purging the lines again.
There's a bubble in their somewhere.

I think I've purged the air from the main filter by cracking the banjo fitting on the outlet line from the filter to the IP. I've also loosened the injector lines and after a cumulative 3-4 minutes of cranking (in 15-29 second bursts), still see no fuel at the injector lines.
