I managed to repair the broken fuel line and now need to bleed the system.
I need some direction as to how to do this.
I did not get any manuals with the tractor.

Thank you for the link, I tried the method described but I have a fuel leak at the broken line so no go. I will have to replace the lift pump.

Colemans got the new lift pump and gasket to me in 4 days for about $15 less than my local dealer who was out of stock and a 1/2 hour drive away.
Easy to install and bleed to get it running.
