That assumption would be wrong - I have no idea where the injectors are!! I just bleed the fuel system... the fuel filter drops nothing but diesel so I assume because when I did it and it ran for fifteen minutes all was well.. I ran it at less than optimum rpm btw...
Like I stated I am not mechanically inclined - I looked at replacing the fuel pump as being as simple as changing a graphic card in a pc...
If it ran for fifteen minutes surely that would eliminate bleeding the fuel injectors?
