David - My Universal M40B is self bleeding. When I repowered, it
started up on the first try. Amazing.
I have an external electric Walbro pump and valves to recirculate fuel
through the Racor and back to the tank, bypassing the engine. When
changing fuel filters, I'll run that for a bit just to purge air from
the Racor. However, you don't need that. There's probably enough fuel
in the engine lines to get the engine started, and the electric fuel
pump will move enough fuel through to purge the lines before an air
bubble hits the injector pump.

I am presuming that the
electric fuel pump circulates fuel continuously so this will remove air from the
lines. Is that right? If so, it would be a major plus as bleeding the lines on
my old Yanmar was a PITA.
