There will be a small hand pump either on the diesel pump or on the filter. bleed the filter out first and then open the bleed screws on the pump and pump until you get straight fuel., The pump may requiring unscrewing the handle/knob first so that you can move it up and down to pump. When finished remember to re screw it back down. crack the injector lines and turn engine over until you get drips of fuel from the nuts. continue to turn over the engine while tightening the nuts and it should start before you have finished with the nuts.

How do I bleed my 2005 KIA Sportage Manual transmission diesel engine?

Being diesel fuel I doubt that is needed. The fuel does not degrade like petrol with ethanol.

Accidentally put unleaded fuel instead of diesel in 2013 D22 drove approx 10k

Drain the fuel out and flush the fuel lines and the filter. Failure to purge the unleaded fuel from the system can destroy the engine due to severe pre ignition.

Hino Rainbow bus ran out Of diesel I have now put diesel in the tank, and I jus need to know where fuel injection is located to bleed the air out please

air bleeds are on the filter housing and on the fuel pump
If it has individual fuel lines to the injectors the loosen the injector nut to each injector and wind the motor over until you get drips at the nut. re-tighten the nuts and it should start

LDV COnvoy Bus Engine has diesel injector pump and nozzles replaced by new ones, but the vehicle fails to start as nozzles can't open. Please help.

The air needs carefully bleeding from the whole fuel system. Seehttps://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090127103717AAaZvbX

Had about 4 gal of diesel in tank and someone put 5 galons of gas in tank. Drove a mile and stopped for not sure how long. Went back out to start and would not start.

it all depends on how much diesel remained in the tank before the gasoline was added, and how new and sophisticated the diesel engine is. In a 2007 or newer clean diesel engine, any amount of gasoline will probably damage the sensitive emissions control components (DPF, OxyCat and SCR) and system. In older engines with much less sophisticated and "touchy" emissions systems, a lightly diluted (say 90 percent diesel/10 percent gasoline) mix would probably pass through with little or no detriment. It might simply cause reduced engine power, perhaps a bit more noise, and possibly a sharp warning from the emissions sensors that detect something other than pure diesel exhaust. It's high concentrations of gasoline that spell real trouble. Whether a modern clean CRD diesel or an old indirect injection unit, burning straight gasoline or highly diluted diesel fuel will almost certainly result in catastrophic damage to the mighty diesel engine.

2000 EXCURSION has been sitting for two years out fuel and it wont start

more than likely there's condensation and air built up in the system , youll need to crack the fuel lines open and bleed the system, just as if you were bleeding brakes, air in the fuel lines is a very common problem on diesels

1994 GMC Sierra stood for 6 years

Well his first mistake was buying a Duramax Isuzu Diesel... But with that said, Diesel has a tendency to grow bacteria in the gas tank. Flush the gas tank and change the fluids in the engine and you should be fine. You may notice that some of the gaskets on the engine may leak now that they have dried up. they will either reseal themselfs in time or with thightening or you will have to replace the gasket. I don't think that will be the case after only a few years though.
