Oil & Fuel fuel filter leak

   / fuel filter leak #11  
They are easy to find. If I can change my bowl and filter, you can do it too. Mine bled out and started right up easy. In fact, that was a lot easier than getting the stripped drain plug on the right side of my front axle off to change the gear oil.

That's one way. I just fill up the bowl when I change the filter to save time.

Do them one at a time...and do as buppy69 states, fill the bowl with fuel and reassemble.

The systems is designed to purge any/all air trapped in the fuel lines. Start at the left 10 mm bleeder screw and allow the fuel to drip (for several seconds) which eliminates (bubbles) air, and retighten (just snug). Go to and do the same with the right 10 mm bleeder screw. Do the 10 mm bleeder screw on the banjo fitting on your injector pump last.

It is not necessary and does not help to 'crack open' injector lines or other fittings to bleed the system and often detrimental to do so, as it creates areas to allow air back into your fuel delivery system.

Just follow the fuel line with your finger to the injector pump....to the front of your tractor. When you finger hits the fitting (banjo) there is another 10 mm bleeder screw on the top (of the fitting).
