G1 - BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM
These operations are necessary only in the following
cases:
A component of the fuel system is replaced
A drained fuel tank
Running out of fuel
Ensure that the fuel level in the tank is sufficient and
bleed in the following order:
1.Open the engine cover.
2.Turn on the ignition for three minutes, to give the
lift pump time to release air from the filter.
3.Switch off the ignition key.
IMPORTANT: Do not engage the starter motor for
more than 30 seconds. Let it cool between unsuc-
cessful starting attempts.
BLEEDING THE INJECTORS
Remove the injectors cover (1) (fig. G6/1).
Loosen the high pressure connectors (2) (fig.
G6/2) of all the injectors.
Activate the starter until the diesel fuel flows out
free of air at the high pressure connectors (2) (fig.
G6/2).
Tighten the connections while the diesel fuel is
flowing out [tightening torque: 22 ft.-lbs. (30
Nm)].
The engine is then ready to be started.
Run the engine slowly for five minutes immedi-
ately after bleeding the fuel system, to ensure that
the injection pump has been bled thoroughly.
NOTE: If the engine runs properly for a short time
and then stops or runs irregularly, check for pos-
sible leaks in the low pressure circuit. If in doubt,
contact your dealer.
