106 Fuel system
Fuel system
Clean fuel of the correct quality is essential for trouble-free running
of the diesel engine.
Fuel system, air bleeding
If the tank has been run dry or if air has got into the system for
other reasons, the system must be bled for air.
IMPORTANT! Under no circumstances must starting
attempts be made before the system has been bled. The fuel
feed pump may be seriously damaged.
1 Pump with the hand pump until a resistance can be felt in the
pump.
NOTE! No nipple is to be opened.
2 Start the engine and leave it running at low idling for approx.
five minutes. The engine speed must not be raised, as any air,
which is left in the system, may be forced into the cylinder head.
3 Check that there are no error codes shown on the display unit.
WARNING!
Make sure that fuel under high pressure cannot come into
contact with unprotected parts of your body when working
with fuel injection equipment.
