I know it's not really classic! My dad has a JCB 2CX which has seen it's first service in years! It seems a silly question but how in the name of heck do I bleed it, it's all ready to go apart from that.

Re: Bleeding JCB 2CX!
Was gonna say rotary or inline injection pump. 2cx? what engine does it have and a rough idea of it's age will help enormously
there are old fitters and bold fitters but no old bold fitters...

Re: Bleeding JCB 2CX!
If You have just changed the fuel filter bleed it through the cold start pipe at the cold start if it has run out of fuel bleed it at the top of the filter and at the pump then slacken the injector pipes off turn the engine over till you get fuel out then it should start.

Re: Bleeding JCB 2CX!
Judging by the state of the sediment bowl,i would establish that fuel is actually getting through from the tank.

Re: Bleeding JCB 2CX!
The sediment bowl is now clean, it had got filthy though... The machine was working on a daily basis until I changed the filters, now we can't get any fuel to anywhere blooming thing. Starting from the tank where abouts does the fuel actually go and in what order, the sheer number of pipes makes it near impossible to trace things!
