    I have two reverso electric fuel pumps by the front of each engine. Never used these before. Assume I just flip the breaker, turn the valve handle and hit the toggle switch and it will pump fuel to the filters, etc. Does it have to be bleed with this system or does it do that automatically? Thanks

    Open the valve on them first, then turn the breaker on, it will take a while to prime everything, I would pre-fill the filters most of the way with diesel first. I wouldn't open the bleed screws with the priming pumps......(you could either make a huge mess with the bleed screw open, or some priming pumps are on the return side and suck the fuel through the motor and you'd be sucking air through the system).
