[Vwdiesel] Ran out of fuel?-what to do?

[Rex Merriweather]

Hey Guys:
Just carefully remove the bolt on top of the IP that's marked "out"(don't loose the copper washer) and I use a turkey baster fill it up with AT fluid, replace the bolt and do the same at the top of the fuel filter. Usually, this works and with very minimal cranking. If needed repeat the process but, only doing the IP and it will start. I always carry a turkey baster and AT fluid in my diesel van. I hope this saves some grief.
