Allis 180 bleeding fuel lines

Deere Oliver Farm · Apr 14, 2016

Just picked up a nice Allis 180 diesel, but had a small leak in the fuel line nut not tightened which left an air pocket after I shut it down. I can speculate where to bleed the lines, and I see what appears to be some sort of priming system too. But is there a bleed nut anywhere on the fuel injector pump? And any other advice? Thank you to all of my responders. I appreciate your time and help.

My 190xt has a little square head bleed screw on the fuel filter housing. Open that and gravity should carry the fuel. When you get a nice solid flow of fuel that far snug that square head back in and loosen the injector lines at the injectors and crank the engine. Make sure the fuel is turned on at the sediment bowls and on the injection pump!

Injection pump is self bleeding, but if there is a lot of air to the pump inlet, like when replacing the filter the injector line nuts may need taken loose and the line end popped loose to bleed the air out. Also remember on AC the fuel stop is backwards from other makes, out is fuel on, in is fuel off.
