I must admit though, there wasn’t any air in the system at the time as this was just a demo on a working vehicle.

Same briefings though, fill the filter with diesel and you shouldn’t need it. I’m just keeping it handy in the box with the jumper leads and assorted odds for that “just in case” event.

P38ace,

Not on the Defender, but on a Transit. Compared the fittings and they appeared identical. I was a bit reluctant messing uneccesarily with the Puma's fuel system...

Could you put a solid state electronic fuel pump in the system before the filter to prime the system. When primed switch it off the let the other pump drag the fuel through it. It will work with a perkins motor.
