I only bled at the injectors .
I thought i could force out any air by turning the engine over whilst being towed . (I bet i sound stupid dont i ??).
If that is no good ,can someone explaine the correct process of bleeding the system .

First post since getting my computer sorted .
Had the Golf running a few times but was only running very rough .
We could see the air in the diesel line running back towards the tank in the clear line before the fuel filter ,when the ignition was switched off .
Could this be a air leak in the tank ???.
Maybe when id removed the 10yr old diesel from the tank ,i didnt seal the fuel sender relay correctly .
I refitted the sender unit with the o ring seal and for the first time it started off the key .
Hopefully tomorrow we might get some where near smooth running .
Still a bit smoky though !!!!

Due to the lack of space and pressure from her in doors ,
the mk1 was swapped for for a Mecedes A class .
I had too many projects on the go and the lack of offers on this
forum forced me to swap her .
The car is know on its side having a tinnel fitted for the immenent 4wd
and vr6 grunt that is going to be fitted very soon .
Not the way i would like to have restored her but i guess she's no longer mine .
