As Si Click said we do mean the same, ‘Outer, I called left and front right.



It does make sense very much this way.
The air hole was probably blocked so it didn’t want to fire up. Removal of the bleed valve sorted that problem but left us with the problem of having a lack of fuel for the initial start after relieving pressure from the system when standing for a while.

Is there a part number for just the bleed valve without the brass fitting?

The fuel pump does make funny noises, a bit like it is running the air bleed procedure (5 times pressing the accelerator pedal), not a steady buzzing sound. Might this have to do with lack of the bleed valve?

I have to say, great help guys, much appreciated!!
Cheers!
with filter head fitted to the vehicle theres 2 pipes facing forward 2 facing the rear of the vehicle ,of the rear 2 tthe one furthest from chassis ie outer is air bleed,of the 2 front the one nearest the chassis is oneway valve ie duckbill,
air bleeds dont come separate

Correct that is what I meant.
I have put together a drawing:D
 
That is exactly like I mentioned. Trust me we are all talking exactly about the same pipes. I find the picture very clear, this is obviously how you look at the filter when it is mounted to the chassis.
 
This is just a nomenclature issue. We are all talking about the same connector, the one that goes to the air bleed connection (9) on the pump.
 
Been a while, it starts, but not with a flick of a turn. Sometimes it does start very very hard when standing a while.
Also there is not a steady rpm, I have asked this in another threat:

I am wondering if this have a relation with each other. Where is best to start looking?
When initially started (which goes not smooth) and then cut it off, then it starts the 2nd time right away.
Would there be a air in the system when standing for a night or a pressure drop?
