Secondary Filter Bleeding Question

I am installing secondary spin-ons on my deuce. I have changed filters before and have bleed the system per the 20 TM. My question is does anyone have a tip on the best way to keep the fuel from splashing all over when bleeding from the petcock (No. 11 in the 20TM)?

If you crack the bleeder just a little you can watch while someone cranks the truck...when the air bleeds out you shut the valve and stop the flow.......just put some rags around the bleeder to catch any spill.

You also need to crack the injector lines where they go into the head and bleed the air out of the injector lines too.

Negative. Just urn on the power switch. That will provide all the flow you need to bleed them. I have run my truck out of fuel countless times and I have NEVER had to crack an injector line
