98-99 VW Polo run out of diesel and it will not start.How do i bleed the fuel.?

if theres a 'pump thing' on the filter.. you can give that a squeeze till it feels like its pumping...

but the main thing to do is open up a couple of injector pipes.. theses are on the cyl head.. and are usually 17 mill size

once opened.... tow the vehicle for a while.. until it starts to judder, then stop and tighten them up again... only need to open one or two of them... if you got a good battery, you can do this without towing it... but do put a charger to the batts to help you along98-99 VW Polo run out of diesel and it will not start.How do i bleed the fuel.?The injection pump has a bleeder that you attach a vacuum pump to to bleed the system.



Alternatively, it will take a while to do is (and takes a while to do):

Locate the fuel filter

Remove the thermostatic tee, fill with diesel fuel, install thermostatic tee, crank engine for about 10 seconds %26amp; repeat process until started.98-99 VW Polo run out of diesel and it will not start.How do i bleed the fuel.?follow the manual there is normally a manual pump and a drain off that would need to be drained
