Thread: Fuel Filter

This is how i do it wether its correct or not. With the engine off, remove old filter, screw in nylon drain from old filter to the new one if not supplied. Fill new filter with diesel and screw back on making sure its firm. Once this is done start her up. if you have not run it dry it should bleed up fine and run straight away, may give a cough and fart but should be fine.

Thanks mate, I wasn't sure if they were self bleeding or not.

If you do run dry there is a primer lever on the lifter pump on the drivers side of the engine. In an awkward position but isn't everything. Just pump it quite a few times.
