Entirely different issue. The recirculating fuel supply from the gas tank to the MFI pump does not have to be bled - it's kind of an open system, really. No real way to trap air - everything just gets pumped on through back to the tank. We were discussing the high pressure lines from the MFI pump to the injectors, which are kind of a closed system that can trap some air. Some folks will tell you that, because of this, it needs to be bled, one high pressure line at a time. I've not found that to be the case, at least in my experience.
