Thanks for responding Ron, I checked the fittings- all tight, but in the glass JD style fuel filters there's a bubble of air trapped up near the top(above the feeding fuel line). I checked, it doesn't go down when its running, and any amount of bleeding doesn't seem to remove it b/c its above where the feeding line to the injector draws off of. Could this be a problem or isn't it as likely? (The reason it doesn't bleed out is that the engine is on a slight slant, and the bleed hole being on the dead top doesn't bleed absolutely everything. Should I try to bleed it on a hill :D or do you think it would be ok..... Yes, the fuel pump does pump when the key is turned to ON and also at START. The fuel is flowing out in a hurry, I'm guessing 1-2 psi, but that could be way off b/c I can't measure it. Anyway, the fuel is there, but not at once, it takes a couple seconds to reach the injector pump. BTW, the fuel pump before the filters on the engine, not sure where the original one was set up. Anyway, another long bunch of questions thanks for replying, i hope we can resolve it. Thanks again, Paul
