Davis D., Had the same problem with the RM pump on my 340D and I think they are the same pump. Had the pump professionally rebuilt and still ended up having a friend help as we lightly pressurized the fuel tank to "help the fuel" through the pump. We cracked the lines at the injectors starting with the center two, then the other two one at a time. Would get just a little fuel and some air out of the lines each time this was done. Finally, after about 2 hours of work, got the fuel to "spurt out of the lines with them completely out of the injector fittings. As this was done on each line I tightened up that line and went to the next one.

One help might be to put a charger on your battery while doing all the cranking or even another vehicle with jumper cables. Either was, becareful not to smoke your starter. Turn it over no more than 5-7 seconds with each try and let the starter cool off some between turns.

We finally got it bled. The Roosa's are stubborn to bleed without a primer aparatus like the 560's had. They do not like any air in the system.
