It seems to take forever to bleed the fuel system on a Perkins 6.354 engine with a rotary style injector pump. Does anyone know the secret other than bleeding the lines at the injectors?
I was told that the injector pump was no good and that's why it starts so hard when it needs bleeding. I don't believe that because once the engine is started it runs fine and starts fine afterwards. Any advice would be appreciated.
