1999 Diesel pump question

Hi group,

I worked on a diesel leak and the car wont start now, I assume is because there is air in the lines but was wondering if there is a diesel pump on these cars.

Thank you.

There's no hand pump, if that's what you're asking. The system is self priming. You just have to crank it until the air is purged.

Thank you!

I took alot of cranking, I still have the leak tough. It seems that is coming from the shut-off valve, this valve is attached to the injection pump, It has 3 fuel lines attached to it, 2 in the top one on the bottom. I think is the O-ring between shut-off valve and injection pump. Will see...

I believe,

If you've removed the fuel lines. You can crack a line while someone else operates the key. This will help bleed the air quicker.
