I just ran out of fuel on our newly acquired, Old MF 35 Deisel. I am now having trouble getting her to start again (yes I added more fuel to the tank and I know about glow plugs). Is there something about 'priming' deisels I don't know about!? Help!

I have a super 90 diesel, and wound up having to pull t to start it, I tried bleeding everything, and it never did start, pulled it about 20 feet, and it popped right off.

I done the same thing when I got My 175D I had a heck of a time finding all the bleeder ports. make sure tank shut off valve is open.loosen the air vent on primary filter operat pump till air free fuel flows from vent plug hole tighten plug. loosen vent plugs 2 3 and 4 on secondary filter [if equepet] and injection pump in the order given, while continuing to operate pump . tighten each plug as air is expelled and proceed to the next. operate pump ten seconds after tightening vent plug 4 to expel any air remaining in bleed back lines. with the fuel supply system bled push in the stop button, partially open throttle lever and attempt to start the tractor, if tractor fails to fire, loosen compression nut at all injector nozzles and turn engine over with starter untill fuel escapes from all loosend connections. tighten compression nuts and start engine. hope this helps good luck.

Hi Colin,

I agree with details in previous posts

BUT..stay away from injector fittings when
you start whith loose fitting high pressure fuel
can go trough your skin get in the blood and
cause severe sickness.If available wear protection
goggles on your eyes. If the engine starts in this
operation..do not go to the fittings to tighten
while engine is running...stop the engine immediately and tight the fittings it will restart
easyly after that. Keep kids away.

Hope it will help

On the outside of the injection pump there are two7/16 or 10mm hex bleed screws,one above the other. loosen the lower screw and wait until fuel runs out,then close it and open the top screw and wait. then loosen the injector line nuts at the injector and crank engine until fuel squirts out ,tighten the nuts and crank til it starts,crank 15 seconds then wait 30 and repeat.also I think there are bleed screws on top of the fuel filters

you must bleed the air from system. either at each injector or a main bleeder
