i know this sounds confusing....but I imagine you are suggesting that the fitting where the line attaches to the injector be loosened allowing air to escape.
I must ask though, how many of you guys do this alone? Do you have a remote starter button and if so, where do you feel is best to connect?

Fuel T-stat? What does it look like? Does anyone remove this?
And what is a Cum Fitting?
I am diagnosing a 'no start' condition with an 87 300TD. Ran fine, parked on the flat, week later, no start. I get a 'pop' maybe from one cylinder trying, but thats it. Was hoping to see priming procedure here. No luck yet. Will try opening lines while helper cranks.
Battery is fully charged.
