Hi Brian,
It is best to run the engine, with a bit o' load if you can.
If it stops due to air then bleeding at the
injectors is pretty easy but you might get lucky
and it will just hiccup but keep running.

I pulled the fuel hose off the tank pickup
nipple as part of cleaning the tank though did
not really need to do so. Now presumably there is some air in the fuel hose.
Do I have to bleed that air using the tiny
manual fuel pump on the side of the engine? Or
can I try to start the engine [it has been
winterized for 6 months] and hopefully pull the
air bubble to the fuel filter / engine? There
is ~ 6 of fuel hose from the tank to a Racor,
then another 4 of fuel hose to reach the fuel
pump, so it would take a long time and be quite
a bit of fuel that is pumped out of the small
Yanmar fuel filter bleed screw. Hoping to
minimize the time and inevitable diesel dribbles on the side of the engine.
Thanks,
Brian
