Tango has the right idea. Let gravity help you out. Your prime pump may be NG as well. If you crack the banjo bolt that is mounted on the filter housing, the opposite end the "check valve" fitting on the IP. That will bleed the air from the system. That fitting is the high point in the system and has a bleed hole to the secondary filter. This is where an electric fuel pump would come in handy. Otherwise you'll have to crank the engine. Loosening the injection lines on the injectors will also help bleed the air while cranking the engine. As soon as you get fuel coming out of them tighten them back up. Have fun.
