A dock mate helped me bleed the fuel lines on the Perkins. We cheated and bleed them from the injectors. Was not really hard to do, a bit messy but worked out fine. I will find out if it can be done that way all the time. We used an electric fuel pump installed by the PO and the hand pump on the engine. Also turned the motor over several times with the throttle wide open.
Now on the Beta engine there is just a little valve you turn to bleed the fuel line and it is located on the right front of the motor where it is easy to get at. You get that for a measly $12,000 or so for a re-power
