Fuel system, bleeding
The fuel system must be vented, e.g. after changing
fuel filter,
if the fuel tank has been run dry and after long
stops.
1 Put a suitable vessel underneath the hose.
2 Remove the protective cap from the venting nipple
(1) on the filter bracket.
3 Open the venting nipple and pump up fuel with the
hand pump (2) until air-free fuel flows out. Tighten
the venting nipple while fuel is flowing out.
4 Fold the hose back and put the protective cap back
on the venting nipple.
5 Run the engine at idling speed for a couple of
minutes to allow any remaining air out of the sys-
tem. Make sure there are no leaks.
