How do you prime a tractor injector pump?
Fill your tractor’s fuel tank until full. Turn on your tractor. Let it operate for 10 to 15 seconds while in a neutral gear. If your diesel engine uses a self-priming system, this will prime the fuel pump adequately.
How do you prime the injectors?
How to Prime a Diesel Injector Pump
- Loosen the nuts connecting the injectors to the motor head.
- Insert the key into the ignition.
- Listen for the vehicle’s electric lift pump to begin transferring diesel from the fuel tank to the fuel filter housing and, in turn, the injector pump.
Why are my fuel pump injectors not working?
In 2006, diesel fuel production was tweaked to compensate for ultra low sulfur diesel fuel (ULSD), and diesel engine owners have noticed more “dirty fuel” difficulties than before. If your main goal in life was to destroy diesel fuel pump injectors, you’d run your car with the fuel tank as close to empty as possible.
What’s the pressure of a diesel injector pump?
Today’s diesel fuel injection pumps are under pressure – even more pressure than what was once considered “normal.” Around 15-20 years ago, it was common for fuel injector pumps to process fuel in a system at around 10,000 to 15,000 psi (pounds per square inch). But that’s only about half of what engines are expected to do today.

How does a fuel injector work in an engine?
It’s about as simple as you can get: fuel injectors supply fuel to the engine’s internal combustion chamber. The fuel is dispersed from the injection pump to the combustion chamber via a fairly simple process. Pressurized fuel enters the fuel injector.
