Air in your system

6 March 2012  

IT can take some time to purge a diesel fuel system of air, especially if there’s no self-bleeding system but help is at hand with the Diesel Bleeding/Primer kit from Laser Tools. It comes with six connectors, covering Ford, PSA, Fiat, Rover, Renault, Land Rover and Mercedes-Benz. The hand pump is used until clear fuel is seen in the clear exit pipe. If it proves difficult to purge, a bleed valve is included in the kit enabling the air to be bled off.
