AFTER RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
When starting the engine after it has run out of fuel, fill the fuel tank with clean fuel, then fill the fuel filter cartridge
with clean fuel and bleed the air from the fuel system before starting.
PROCEDURE FOR BLEEDING AIR
CAUTION
This engine consists of higher precision parts than on the conventional fuel injection pump and nozzle, so if dirt gets in, it will
cause problems. If there is any dirt stuck to the fuel line, use fuel to wash it off completely.
Be careful when opening the air bleed plug at the fuel filter head and the air bleeder of the supply pump. The system is still
under pressure and fuel may spurt out.
1. Remove fuel filter cartridge (1), fill the inside of the filter with
clean fuel, taking care not to let dirt or dust get in, then install
it again.
Add fuel from small hole (A) (dirty side) at eight places. Do not
add fuel from hole (B) (clean side) at the center.
If clean fuel is not available, go on to Step 2.
2. Loosen air plug (2) of the fuel filter head and open supply valve
(3) at the bottom of the fuel tank.
