Hi, there should be a lever on the fuel pump that you pump by hand. The fuel pump is located on the right side of the engine.

Steps to bleed a BD154:

1)Loosen bleed screw on primary fuel filter and pump hand pump until fuel flows out the bleed srcew WITHOUT AIR BUBBLES. Tighten this bleed screw.
2)If your tractor has a secondary fuel filter perform the same procedure.
3)IF you have a CAV injection pump there should be two bleed screws on it. Locate the one towards the front of the engine, loosen, pump hand pump until no air bubbles, tighten and repeat for the bleed screw at the rear of the injectoin pump.

4)Apply glow plugs and attempt to start tractor.
If tractor does not start within 2 minutes then you will have to loosen an injector line. Normally you only have to loosen 1 injector line at the rear of the injector pump.

5)Attempt to start again. If it dosen't start this time loosen another injector line.

Retighten injector lines after tractor has started.

BE CAREFUL WITH HIGH PRESSURE DIESEL FUEL COMING FROM THE INJECTOR LINES. IT CAN PENETRATE YOUR SKIN AND CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.

Good luck
JB
