Hi SkiVT - thanks for posting the video and the diagram/image. It does help me visualize where the FD Plunger sits. If I interpret correctly, the plunger sits pretty much in the center of the FD unit, and not visible inside the air box (view obstructed by the lever arm) --- is that correct?

Now, as I showed in the video I posted, I can only pull the lever down, but cannot push it up. So, then how do I execute procedure that ossible described in Post #2 above? I'm a bit confused about this --- this is really a big level up for me in terms of wrenching. So, appreciate the support and understanding here.


Post # 2 from Ossiblue above:
"Remove the air filter from the intake. Turn on the ignition and gently press up on the plunger inside the intake. You will then hear the fuel pump run, and within a few seconds, a vibration/squeal of the injectors spewing fuel. As soon as you hear the injectors, release the plunger. Your system is now primed and ready for starting."

I assume I am not pushing up on the actual plunger, but rather pushing up or pulling down on the lever?

Thanks!
