Don't have to, just crank her up, they will start right up. All air will be pushed right on through injectors. I'll just add a little more here. So many people are always talking about bleeding air out of hyd or fuel systems. Thing is, unless it is a dead end street like a single action hyd cyl or a brake piston, the air will go right on out ahead of the fluid and you are good to go. Different deal when changing fuel filters etc as the pump has to be able to get ahold of some fluid to move it. Worst thing on a diesel is to try starting them when the pump isn't grabbing fuel, then you get the air trapped in side the pumping plungers so you need to relieve it by opening lines behind plunger like at the injectors. In your case , the pump still has fuel and this model of pump is really very forgiving about any air in the lines to injectors, might take a few extra cranks but not much.
