to reprime the sytem

You know there is an easy way to do most every thing. Surely your Mother told you that more then once! Now, when you get your test all completed, (and write down the number so you will know if it changes the next time you do it) and after installing the glow plugs and wiring, then put the hard lines back on. First get all five started on the bottom, (make sure they are started and turn nice and easy), then get all the top ones started, (make sure they are all started and turn nice and slick) then tighten up all five on the bottom (snug now, this is for real) and only hand lighten the top, (as tight as possible, but by hand only). Now go to the passenger side and again jump the screw terminals in that box and watch very carefully for fuel, (not bubbles) coming out of those upper nuts. As soon as fuel appears, tighten them up nice and snug with the opened end wrench, and it should start like it never came apart.
