thank you!

You were correct in pointing me in that direction. To be clear, on my tractor, I need to turn on the key so the fuel pump is on but not turn on the starter motor or ignition. The electric fuel pump is located between the 2 filters and pulls and pushes the fuel through both filters.

So I figured it out (with some advice). With the 2 filters on my 1840, the key is to bleed the air from the top of the the "main filter" (steel canister), labeled #2 in the owner's manual. Once I opened that 19mm bolt, the clear bowl "pre-filter" filled right up. Thanks to everyone for their...

Yes it is discouraging and frustrating. The owner's manual lacks information on how to perform this basic procedure. I even paid to download a service manual but again nothing helpful. Wondering if there is a good service manual for this MF 1800 series compact tractor.

Well that's a nice feature. Unfortunately, no plunger on mine. Maybe need to switch that for one like yours.

I'll give it a try. thanks

Thanks, I've cracked the bleeder on the secondary and the injectors. Still doesn't want to fill.

I have just changed the primary and secondary fuel filters on my MF 1840. I've turn on the fuel pump but not turned on the ignition yet. The pre-filter (clear plastic bowl) only partially fills. How do I get this fuel to fill? Thanks for any help. Ack
