Can you see fuel coming out of the filter? If you haven’t primed it properly you’ll see residual fuel post filter but not enough!

Whoever told you that about the CPS is wrong. Personally I would fit the CPS back from the 'new' engine. Although as it runs with easy start that is probably not your issue. As Farmer Chalk has already suggested, you need to ensure the fuel filter has been bled properly, either by filling with clean diesel or preferably with a bulb pump & sucking the fuel through from the tank.

Sounds a mare! Good luck with it!.... it’s so annoying when you know it’s just a tiny thing stopping it firing!

I had an issue recently were I ran out of fuel - my fault, what I found was that the injector lines needed bleeding to get the fuel through. It would also run on easy start. MY13 HSE Lux Santorini Black Gone

I assume you have cracked open one injector pipe at the injector and the rail?

Modern CRD fuel systems should not need the injector lines to be bled, infact it is a real no no in the diesel world. This system operates at extremely high pressure & is more than capable of slicing skin/flesh like a scalpel! I personally would ignore the comments that advise that.

Getting bubbles in the fuel system when drawn through the filter with vacuum pump. Connections seem sound but these push on things never seem tight...will try changing the filter. |

All injector lines will take off your skin if your daft enough to put your finger over them. Even on my 1956 Leyland Beaver. It’s not a real no no in my diesel world. I’ve been cracking off an injector nut since I was old enough to hold a spanner! Last week after changing the fuel filter on my Metropolis, I did just that! So,once again............if it won’t start try doing what I said |

Changed the filter and seems to have stopped or reduced the leak of air in. Pressure at the rail now much, much higher. Still won't fire though

Well undo just one injector nut and also slacken the pipe at the rail to allow you to move it slightly,

That's what we've been doing as per your instructions MOWOG. Not even a hint of running. It's as if the injectors aren't actually firing. You'd think (well I would but I know Petrol) that at least it would cough a bit...? |
