Diesel focus run out now needs bleeding how do i do it

There isn't usually diesel bleed valves in the traditional way. The drivers of modern diesels require to arrive at a destination without smelling of diesel - even if the car did run out of fuel on the way. For that reason modern diesel cars are intended to be self-bleeding - something most of them fail dismally at due to manufacturers cutting costs...

Lots of cranking when the car is young and fit would usually get it started but the time taken to self bleed would become longer with age until a single battery would never be enough.

Modifying the fuel system by adding a hand prime pump is money well spent and then when primed loosening the injector pipes and cranking until fuel emerges from each and retightening and the engine will soon start.

did you bleed the air when filter was changed

should be a primer on fuel filtere

Bleed each injector before it goes into head lots of air bubbles

DIESEL FUEL INJECTION LINES UNDER PRESSURE WHILE ENGINE AND INJECTION PUMP RUNNING. TELL ME IF YOU REPLACED FUEL FILTER OR INJECTION PUMP WORK WHY NEED BLEED LINES.TELL ME WHAT YOU REPLACED..

Two very important things. The fuel shut off valve must be working.
You will need to find out how to bleed the air out of the fuel system.

hi, i have found that if you locate the fuel filter, fill this with fuel and run your car it should bleed through the system you possibly have an air lock in the system somewhere this will stop the fuel from getting to the engine, you can also crack off the injector nuts ( do not remove completely just loosen one at a time ) then turn the engine over to see if the fuel is getting to the injectors this will also help bleed out the air, they are supposed to be self bleeding, but sometimes it does not work...hope this helps

The age of this transit should be a self bleeding system. But if not, you will see some metal tubes running into the cylinder head, with nuts at the end. Loosen these and crank the engine over until fuel spurts through. You will only need to do 2 or 3 to get the engine started.
I have personally used a damp start spray, in the air inlet to fire up diesel trucks before and not needed to bleed the system at all. Worth a try, just open up the air filter and squirt some into the inlet, crank it over and it should start.

Sorry.I am not sure on your model but.If you run a diesel out of fuel,it needs to have the fuel system bled.In the book it will say how.Most common is a bleed valve.Sorry I could not help you more on your car but someone from fixya will..I just wanted to tell you what needs to be done.Sorry I could not help you straight up but wanted to tell you what is needed for your vehicle.Thanks

a diesel engine can only cutout when overheating, loss of diesel fuel and air leak in the fuel system. if you know how to bleed or ask somebody to bleed right after it stall, then start the car, if it starts immediately then it is sucking air.
