1. open bonnet, and remove plastic engine cover. 2. locate fuel filter, to the right of the main part of the engine, left of the battery, under a black metal sheild. 3. using the socket wrench remove the two bolts and move out of the way. 4. disconnect the electrical cables via clip that simply lifts a little and pull.
Most diesels are self priming now, or shut off the engine before the engine is fully starved of fuel so you don't have to reprime the fuel line. Add fuel (you may need the funnel thing if it's an Ford easy fuel cap), switch ignition on for 10 seconds, THEN try to start like normal. OK thank you. 19 May 2021 at 13:56. #4.
