OM606- Sanity check fuel line air leaks
Did a little studying to get more familiar with the 606 fuel system.
The attached link shows the fuel flow on the 606.

Air leaks on the sucton side occur before the lift pump (ie lines 1, 2 or 3 marked in red).
The fuel thermostat (item 155 in the diagram below) itself is a very likely culprit.
Additionally, air can leak into the metal fuel filter from failed o-rings (items 11 and 14) on the large hollow bolt (item 20) securing the metal fuel canister to the fuel filter head.
Have these o-rings been replaced recently?
Again, hope this is helpful.
