II - FINAL OPERATION.
aPosition the fuel pipes.
aConnect to the fuel filter:
-the manual priming pump outlet pipe,
-the high pressure pump inlet pipe.
aOpen the bleed screw on top of the fuel filter.
aPrime the fuel circuit using a manual priming pump
until the disconnected pipes are filled with fuel.
aClose the bleed screw on top of the fuel filter.
aCheck that there are no fuel leaks.
aStart the engine.
aCheck that there are no fuel leaks.
aSwitch off the engine.
aRefit the engine cover.
BLEEDING
aRemove the fuel filter mounting nut.
aDetach the manual priming pump.
aRemove the fuel filter without pulling on the water
detection sensor wiring harness in the diesel fuel.
aPosition a container under the fuel filter which has
been removed from its mounting.
aTurn the bleed cap or the water detection sensor in
the diesel fuel (depending on equipment) by no
more than one turn.
aAllow it to flow until diesel fuel appears.
aClose the bleed cap or the water detection sensor
(depending on equipment).

Note:
If the fuel filter is to be reused, fit blanking plugs
to the fuel supply pipes and fuel filter openings,
using the appropriate blanking plug kit, depend-
ing on the engine (see 13B, Diesel injection,
Diesel injection: Precautions for the repair,
page 13B-1) .
WARNING
Do not remove the blanking plugs from each
component until the last moment.
Also, do not remove the components from their
packaging until they are to be fitted to the vehi-
cle.
Note:
Chec k that the fuel filter is correctly positioned
and secure on its mounting by shaking it: the fil-
ter must not move.
WARNING

Operating diagram of the fuel supply circuit ( « pump - sender - fuel filter » assembly)
The fuel supply circuit does not have a return.
The fuel pressure does not vary with engine load.
The circuit comprises:
-a rail (1) without a return pipe union and without a
supply pressure regulator,
-a single pipe (2) coming from the tank,
-a « pump - sender - fuel filter » supply assembly fitted
with a pressure regulator (3) , fuel pump (4) and fuel
filter (5) (all located in the tank),
-a fuel vapour recirculation tank (6) .
