SOURCE: air in fuel lines wont

Did you replace the filter and lines because of the airlocked injectors or did you get the problem after changing the filter and lines? Did you replace the injectors?

On the TDI's it takes a lot to get them bled. Even just replacing the fuel filter can be a pain. It is recommended to fill the filter with fuel through the center opening when replacing. I usually just take the old filter and pour it into the new filter. Try this and you still may have to crank it several times(many, many times). Let me know if there is any change.

Hello: Remove the fuel rail with the injectors attached and wires connected. Disable the ignition system. Have helper turn engine over, see if 3 & 4 injector are firing properly, some times the fuel rail gets trash in it and 3 & 4 do not get enough fuel. Remove the injectors from the fuel rail and see if the inlet to the injector has trash in it.

I have a 1988 toyota pickup with the 22re motor it has plenty of spark,and turns over but wont fire i also replaced the fuel pump and still nothing what else could it be?

Check all the fuses,and check the fuel pump relay,if this checks out o k,See if there is fuel pressure at the fuel injectors,if there is,then the injectors are not pulsing.The cause of this is the pick up coil in the distributor,but replace the distributor as a whole,this has all the components in the distributor,That control the fire,and the pulse to the injectors,A used one might be more economical sound money wise.
