Hello Harry, the lines are matched up. I didn’t disassemble the gear all the way. It came off as one assembly. Pumpguy, it has one inlet and I opened both bleed screws on the filter assembly along with the bleeder on the pump and closed them all once the air bubbles stopped. I then had to...

I just got done rebuilding my motor: new pistons, rings, and bearings. Reason for rebuild was a spun rod bearing. Other than that, the engine was running good. I didn’t do anything with the head or injectors, but I did put a new head gasket on. I put a new fuel filter on and tried to bleed...
