I'd crack the injectors lines loose at the injectors and crank it instead using ether on a hot engine. It'll fire on a few cylinders and as they start leaking fuel, you can tighten them.
No need to do that one these engines, they will self bleed. The problem is getting the fuel back up from the tank and filling the filter and the pump. Just a lot of cranking. And I really don't want to go to an electric pump, the mechanical one does a good job.
I just need to keep fuel in the tank. 1/4 tank and I had better be looking for a fuel station quick.
