does anyone know some tricks or basics to bleeding the air from my massey fergeson 135 diesel?

i have followed the owners manual directions a number of times with varying degrees of success, not all of the air is out yet.

the last step in the manual describes disconnecting the fuel line to the injector. would this be all three lines or just one? do i just "crack" the coupling or remove it altogether?

any thoughts would be of help.

Make sure that your battery is fully charged and all the upstream components (filters, pump, lines) are bled. Bleed the injectors one at a time. Crank the engine til you have nothing but fuel comming out of the "cracked" fitting, then tighten. Usually after half of them are bled, you get a start.

the manual is pretty straight forward with the sequencing of pumping out the fuel from filter next to lift pump all the way to the injectors. I've loosened one injector coupling at a time a bit and pumped the lift pump a good dozen times until fuel comes out steady clear and then tighten. Curious - did you run out of fuel or doing maintenance? Did you remember re-open up the fuel tank valve - assuming you closed it during maintenance? Good Luck.

Just loosen them a little. Do one and try it. If not try another one. Sometimes you have to pump the hand primer a lot. Check out Big Deans site or look on the archives on here. Dave
