To make this easier for your, bleeding:- There is a hand prime pump (black rubber
egg) which will bring the fuel up. Pump this till its hard. Crank the
engine for 5 seconds. Pump the egg again, crank again, probably three
or four times, and the engine should start. It will probably stall,
but do it again, and it will start and run. Once running, keep it
running at a fast idle to get the last bits of air out.
If that gets it going again you need to look at rubber hoses feeding the fuel system, and seals on the diesel filter housing. Also check that the diesel filter housing has been drained of water and muck. If this isnt done from time to time, you could be trying to run your diesel car on water.
A diesel engine can only cutout when overheating, loss of diesel fuel and air leak in the fuel system. if you know how to bleed or ask somebody to bleed right after it stall, then start the car, if it starts immediately then it is sucking air.
