I just finished in stalling new injectors,fuel filter, oil pressure sending unit and all my glowplugs. I am putting everything back together tomorrow and I need to know how to bleed the injector lines. I know on a HMMV with a 6.5 you loosen the lines at the injector and crank the engines over until fuel comes out. I've never done this on a civilian vehicle though. There is hardly any room to get to my passenger side lines with the turbo on. Please help?

same thing as the hmmv . you can try doing just the ones on the drivers side and it should start and run rough til the pass ones clear up

If I read correctly you did not replace the IP. If that be the case just crank it with all the power you can (battery chargers, jumper cables, jumper packs, whatever) The higher you keep the voltage while you're cranking the less amps you use (watt's law) & the faster it cranks & in 30-45 seconds it should run easily. if it takes longer than that let the starter cool for 5 min or so & do the same. I've never bled the lines on a 6.2 or 6.5 & never hurt a thing. Now if you replaced the pump or the pump is dry bleed the ip by removing return line & appli=ying 4-5psi air pressure to tank till you get good fuel thru return line then go back to beginning of this script.

If You don't have the system empty it won't take long to start.
