how to purge the air out of the lines?

[AllenTrucks]

@roterendeinlaatschij you pretty much can just keep cranking it untill it goes or you can go to one injector at a time and crack open the conection and crank it to bleed the air out but it makes a mess and you have to go to every injector

Best way is to disconnect the FSS to stop it from starting whilst cranking . This will also stop air from getting into the IP and injector lines. Then depress the bleed valve on the fuel filter housing while cranking. Once you get a steady stream of fuel let the valve close and reconnect the FSS while continuing to crank. She should fire right up. Doing it this way will avoid having to open injector lines and

i found out that my injectors don't get fuel, if i crack it open at the injector an keep cranking and cranking there doesnt come any diesel out, some drops but not enough.

I opend the IP, the bowl is full of diesel and the CAS/FSS both click. Lift pump works perfect, lots of pressure when opening schradervalve.
