Max--

Seems you get the prize on this as Stranded was able to purge the air in fuel
system per the latest e-mail posted on the subject.

What is a "staubkess steek bolt"? And, Where is it?

Once I find it, and let's say I'm trying to purge air out of the system, is
it a mere opening of the bolt and the air will hiss out and then I see fuel and
I tighten the bolt back. Or, does the fuel need to run out for a while, say
let a pint of fuel run out to be sure it purged?

And also, will the air purge by itself or does the fuel pump have to be
running?

Thanks in Advance,
Jeff

another post alluded to this, I've found that if the Vanagon won't
start after adding even one gallon to the tank, opening up the
staubkess steek bolt in the fuel line T to purge the air eventually
will get the Van to alow fuel to the injectors.
