priming the pump

[tokarev]

The fuel pump on my M35 stopped pumping - still made noise like it was working but no fuel output. Removed the pump to find the pump unit was frozen up - more like gunked up. After removing the lower part of the pump and washing it down with some MEK it finally freed up. We reinstalled the pump and fuel flow returned. Now the question - Priming the injector pump - Is there a trick to getting the injector pump primed? Bleeding air at all the filters untill theres a steady flow of fuel at each?

you might need to open up the bleeder valve on the fuel filter housing on the engine but thats about it.
