Ello newbeeeee here

With a quick question


dropped the engine oil and changed the engine oil filter today
going to do a diesel fuel filter change tomorrow, but how do I bleed the diesel system afterwards???
Also think I might have a air leak in the system – if I park the car on my drive face upward (I have quite a steep drive) I struggle to start it the following morning, its as if the fuel is running back to the tank
But seems to be okay if I reverse onto the drive??

I’ve heard about O rings but where are they to replace them???

Cheers in advance

air in fuel line

'check backwards from the pre-filter (small translucent filter inline in the
engine compartment just before the mechanical fuel pump)[on the side of
the Injection Pump]
'Check all the fuel line clamps,etc. (even the fuel return lines from the injectors.)
'any fuel leakage visible?
'any air bubbles in the pre-filter?

What you are describing is classic fuel line leaks.(allowing the air in )
