Do you have a picture of this? An air chuck on the fuel filter housing is very odd.I thought it was a stream but maybe it was a dribble . The top of the canister filter has an air chuck I hooked to that and only head fuel bubbling in tank did I screw up completely ?
Bosch P/MW/A pumps do not need bleeding, they will prime just fine w/o cracking lines, removing plugs, etc. Put the throttle off idle and crank it.Did you bleed the injector pump?
I always bleed mine, but never knew or thought to manipulate the throttle. Does it make a difference how you position the throttle? Does it push air through faster at wide open vs just off idle?Bosch P/MW/A pumps do not need bleeding, they will prime just fine w/o cracking lines, removing plugs, etc. Put the throttle off idle and crank it.
Compounded by the fact that one tank had the fuel pickup tube lose the solder joint and fall off into the tank, and a faulty tank selector valve....that was an interesting trip!The TM says to crack lines, but my experience has been that it isn't necessary.
Silverstate55 sucked a tank dry in his M931A2 and was getting ready to hop out to crack the line. I asked him to humor me and just switch the tank selector and crank. He did so, and it fired up in 2 cranks of about 8 sec each.
Once upon a time, some fumbduck (ok,it was me) thought the switch on the dash changed tanks on the M931A2s and flipped the switch when one tank got low. Shortly thereafter, the truck sucked the tank dry and coasted to a stop. A quick call (to gimpyrobb) located the valve beside the seat, and a couple of 10sec cranks was enough to prime and fire up and said fumbduck was back on the road...
