Hi Brian, From your description posted a while ago, you do not have a system full of air. Nor do you have a filter full of air. You have at most a few inches of air in the tank pick-up & hose rune. Is this still the case? Isn't this Yanmar a self-bleeding version once it's running? BTW, copper

Brian, I think you’re going to need to get the air out of the system by using the manual pump and the bleed screws along the way. All the best, Edd --- Edd M. Schillay Captain of the Starship Enterprise C&C 37+ | Sail No: NCC-1701-B City Island, New York www.

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 [i
