Bleeding Air from the Fuel Supply System

Model: Renault Scenic - Years 1996-2003
Part: Diesel fuel filter

If the vehicle has run out of fuel or when replacing the diesel filter, air may form in the fuel supply system, making subsequent starting difficult; therefore, after filling the fuel tank or replacing the filter, it is advisable to bleed the system: simply open the bleed valve and manually pump the primer bulb located near the diesel filter to expel the air; when the fuel flow from the bleed valve is steady, close the valve and continue pumping until the bulb offers the correct resistance; only after this operation, start the engine.
