I am a new owner of this boat and it’s going in tomorrow. I have run the engine a few times but have a question or 2. The ignition is on the side of the display panel and the start button is on the display panel. The key turns one position and click, then you can turn it more.
I think buy turning it all the way that heats up the glow plugs? I do that for about 10 seconds before pressing the start button and the engine starts.
Is that the proper starting sequence?
Also after changing the fuel filters it was necessary to turn the key all the way to pump fuel through the bleeder plug. Is that the way to bleed the fuel after changing filters?
Anyhow thanks. I am new to diesels. I had an atomic 4 in my last boat for 34 years and had a good handle on that engine.
