went and bought a layland 384 tractor today it was run out of fuel. i am trying to bleed the system. i have fuel to the fuel pump and both fuel filters and to the injector pump. but for the life of me i can not get it up to the injectors. the manual states i need to crack open the fitting on the injector till good fuel comes out with out any bubbles. i have been trying this for hours now and still cant get fuel up there. would pull starting this tractor help as i dont want to burn the starter up. any ideas? thank you
 
If you want to save your starter, pull start it. Going down a side road with a loose line at one of the injector, it should start popping on three cylinder, then just tight the loose one. If nothing comes up to the injectors, then your high pressure pump is dry and will need some work.
 
Have you loosened the bleeders on top of the injecter pump itself? Once you get fuel there then you can do the lines. The motor will have to be cranking for those 2 bleeds. So yeah, you can tow it.
 
Ok here is the steps to bleed one of these monsters.
First like you have already done bleed teh filters using the hand pump located on the bottom of the lift pump. Then with the filters closed. Open the 2 bleed bolts at teh top outer side of teh injection pump. They are located on the side. They are into the fuel galley that supplies the fuel delivery plungers. They use a 1/2 wrench to loosen. Then pump the hand primer till clear fuel flows out. SHut bleeders. Then depress excess fuel button then crank. Engine should fire and run.

yes i have good fuel to the 2 bleeder bolts on the injector pump. and still no fuel to the injectors. this is my first diesel. so i really have no idea what i am doing. the old repair manual that cam with it is not real detailed. i am going to try to pull it and see what it does. thanks for the help.
 
well i pulled it about half mile with little 9n 2nd gear wide open. had leyland in 5th on the high side still no fuel to injectors. do i need to pull faster with the truck. or am i looking at a pump rebuild.
