After a diesel vehicle runs out of fuel, you can bleed the air by pressing the hand primer pump a few times. Here are more detailed steps: 1. Bleeding from the diesel filter: (1) Loosen the bleed screw on the diesel filter. (2) Press the priming lever on the fuel transfer pump. (3) Observe the loosened bleed screw; when the discharged fuel contains bubbles, continue pressing the priming lever on the fuel transfer pump until the fuel no longer contains bubbles, then stop priming and tighten the bleed screw on the diesel filter. 2. Bleeding from the low-pressure fuel line of the injection pump: (1) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, ensuring the fuel shutoff solenoid valve is open. (2) Loosen the bleed screw on the injection pump.
