    Air bubbles. And hard starting

    I opened the bleeder and got a few bubbles and then straight fuel. But if the truck isn't running and the intank pump is air runs through the lines from the back filter to the IP and then through it to the first filter and it will keep pushing bubbles as long as you have the pump running.

    Air bubbles. And hard starting

    As I type this i have it idled up and the rear filter has the line going to the injection pump and about every 7 secs a group of bubbles gp from the back line on that rear filter to the IP and that's obviously when it runs a Lil ruff then runs good till the next batch of air comes.

    Air bubbles. And hard starting

    In tank pump works good. You can hear it running and you can turn it on and watch the air bubbles run away. I dunno. Can u guys start yours without giving it fuel. I have to floor mine unless I just shut it off 5 secs ago.

    Air bubbles. And hard starting

    The only way I can get mine to start is to stick it on the floor. And it takes several several cranks prob 30 secs at least. The only time it starts rite up is prob 5 secs after I shut it off.

    Air bubbles. And hard starting

    After I shut off the truck I can see air bubbles running through the fuel lines and then the truck is hard starting. Any ideas would be great. I'm new to the MV but not new to diesels. But I don't know where to start.
