Posted this on D-90, thought I'd tap the knowledge bank here too.
While priming with the lift pump I can hear air bubbles in the tank and fuel/air moving through the lines. Should this be the case, should fuel be able flow through the injection pump and back to the tank by manually priming the lift pump without the bleed screw on the filter open?
Also, there isn't enough space to account for all the air in the system, can there be an air leak somewhere without a diesel leak? I can prime the lift pump and continually hear a stream of bubbling in the tank.(navydevildoc on D-90 suggested an air leak in the line before the sedimentor, going to replace that in the am)
The symptoms:
Will idle but stalls under load/up hill, sometimes I can rev it up but typically stalls after. starts again ok if a little rough.
I've just installed a sedimentor, new fuel lines from the sedimentor to the new lift pump and onward to the new fuel filter.
Fuel sprays at idle when I crack the line at the injectors.
This has been driving me bonkers, Thanks in advance for any ideas.
