Step 1: Ensure the seacock is open.

Step 2: Ensure that there is diesel fuel in the tank. Full is better than partial, but if partial is all, the tank should be at least one-quarter or more full.

Step 3: Ensure the 12-volt

battery is fully charged. This becomes even more critical if the restart requires multiple tries.

Step 4: Ensure the emergency stop button on the engine is in the run position. (The button will be “out” or extended from the block.)

Step 5: Prime fuel to the filter by loosening the bleed screw and hand priming the pump to get all the air out of the filter. Nothing but fuel should be flowing out of the bleed screw—no air.

Step 6: Tighten the bleed screw on the filter and continue

priming fuel on the hand-priming pump. Observe the fuel sight gauge on the engine. There should be no air bubbles in the sight gauge.

Step 7: Open the throttle lever to approximately one-quarter travel and attempt to start the engine. If the engine does not start after several attempts, go to the next step.

Step 8: Remove the connector from the fuel pressure regulat- ing valve.

Step 9: Loosen the injector nut on the lies of the left and right banks of the high-pressure rails. Crank the engine over until

a steady flow of fuel is visible coming out of the lines.

Step 10: Tighten the injector nut on the lines on the left and right banks of the high-pressure rails.

Step 11: Install the connector to the fuel pressure regulating valve.

Step 12: Crank the engine. If it still does not start, repeat Steps

10 through 12 several times. If the engine still does not start, continue to the next Step.

Step 13: This should be done only as a last resort. Remove the air filter and squirt start- ing fluid into the intake while cranking the engine. Advance the throttle lever to one-quarter of its travel when spraying the fluid.

Do not overuse ether. Too much starting fluid can cause detona- tion within the engine that can damage components and doing so may void your warranty!

Step 14: Repeat until the engine starts. Allow the engine to run for at least a couple of minutes at 1,000-1,200 R.P.M..

Step 15: Shut off the engine.

Step 16: After a few seconds, restart the engine to ensure that the fuel flow has been re-established and is working properly.
