Hello all,
It's been a while since I've had to prime my KAMA 454 fuel system. Attached is a photo of the injector pump. Just to the right of the pump is a banjo fitting with a bleeder valve. I pump with the bleeder valve open until clear fuel comes out? I wasn't getting much after 20 pumps. Or is it that small hex bolt with slot screw just the right of the 3 out put lines? I understand once I see fuel without bubbles, I'll need to bleed at the injectors while cranking.
As a side note, I'm thinking of changing the paper cartridge fuel filter to a spin on type. Wix 24770 looks like a good fit. Has anyone done this and id so, how to you bleed the fuel filter? The old one on the tractor has a bleeder on top.
