64 will not start.

Good day all. I have an issue. I did an oil change on my 64 this weekend and while doing so I pulled the glow plug and found it to be bad also I check the induction sprayer and it works good. The problem is after doing the listed things above I started it up and let it run, I did not remember that I closed the fuel shut off on the left side of the tank and it died due to lack of fuel. I opened the shut off and tried to restart but it refused. Do you think I need to bleed the system?

Thank you,
James

Dear James

Simple answer. If you ran the system out of fuel, then you will need to bleed it to get it started.

Tim thanks for the response. I figured I would have to, just wasn't 100% due to the tank still having fuel.

Problem solved. A simple fuel line bleed was all that was required.
