Tips for priming a MF 1080- non gravity fuel tank

steve terplak · Aug 5, 2016

I have a MF 1080- it is a platform type of tractor with the fuel tanks beneath the operator therefore below the engine.
I changed the fuel filters and have been working my forearms to death pumping the left pump to prime it.

Any tips?

I opened the bleed screw centered above the filters, I can hear air/fuel/suction but it seems like it can't get it to prime. This seems to be the issue whenever I change filters on this machine.

Any tips?

Can you put a little pressure to your tank and bleed it? Maybe your hand pump valve is stuck. If you do, don't put more than 3 or 4 pounds pressure to it.
