I recently acquired an Allis Chalmers grader. It has a diesel engine. It has sat for a while. Diesel tank was empty. I have diesel to the injector pump, but can’t seem to get the pump primed. I have the lines cracked open to bleed but no luck yet. Cranked on it for a while. Any tricks? Maybe pump needs rebuilt?
