I ordered all the filters for my B8200 and I read somewhere that if i change the fuel filter, I have to bleed the fuel system afterwards. Can anyone tell me what the procedure is for that, I don't see in in the owners manual. Thank you!

Open the valve on the side of the Injection pump called the jet start valve.
Set throttle to low.
Start and run tractor for a min or two, then shut jet start valve, done.

One other thing that helps, Install the new filter but leave the bowl ring a little loose and then turn on the fuel till if fills the bowl and spills out, then snug up the ring.
