Two bleed screws! While watching all of these great videos, it changes the way I view boats at shows, marinas, and especially paper magazines!

While sailing to Catalina, I was working on getting the vapor out. I introduced the vapor, and knew the problem.

After loosening all of the injectors to no avail, I found your video. Got out mucho air, and she fired right up. Thank you so much. I learned a good technique today👍

You ROCK!! Once we bled those two screws it started right up!

Paul, I was wowed by this video. Close-up camera work and camera positioning was outstanding. Lighting was perfect. And the clarity of the video was really good as well. I'm really loving these Boating 101 videos. Keep em' comin'. Keep up the great work. All the best, Jim...

Thanks for the video. I didn't realize that I needed to bleed in two places.

Thanks you save me time and money. Your right nobody else on the net explains the pump bleed.

Do you have to bleed the system every time you start the engine?

[marjannicic]

do you know that bosch pump from 2713e engine can be installed on 2715e instead of simms?

Only really need to open the bleed-screw closest to the front of the engine to purge air out.
And to make sure all air is gone and if injector pipes have been off then pop the excess fuel button with tiny amount of throttle applied once the pipes have been refitted. Will save cranking (batteries and starter) and ensure instant starting.

Did you prime the fuel filter before putting it on use the lift pump to prime it?

[krautAmerican]

correct, if you didn't bleed it, then it would crank for an hour with not even a fart

[krautAmerican]

don't forget to look for air bubbles or drainage at all the fuel line fittings too while you prime it, that will show you loose tube fittings which will introduce air into the system a big zip lok around injector pump so it doesn;t drain in the two cents ha ha ha

I didn't believe my 25XPB had "self bleed"...
My foolishness (ran dry), put it to the test after sailing into the fuel dock. A skeptical Attendant gave me 10 minutes or 'get a tow' ( yes, California). It cranked a solid 30seconds and was find ever since. Engine build year 2017, LiFePo4 batts
