How long should I have to crank after injector replacement (OM616)?
... I finally got remanufactured injectors from the dealer today, and carefully installed them with new heat shields and new (used) hard lines on the 240d, which has been sitting for about a month. It won't start, and I've cranked quite a bit. Not only will it not start, but when I crack the line at the injector, no fuel leaks out. Fuel didn't even leak out when I cracked the line at the injection pump. I did prime the IP, and bubbles are not coming out of the nut on the filter, just diesel. I had been tinkering with the stop lever when I was experimenting with compression tests, so maybe I bent it? Or does it really just take a ton of cranking before fuel gets into the empty lines? I don't want to abuse the starter.
