A diesel engine uses a high pressure fuel system,which means that it can't have air in it,it's kinda like the hydraulic brake system,if their is air in it,it won't work right.
when you run a diesel out of fuel,it sucks in a bunch of air,which must be bled out of the system,in order for it to re-prime its self. if you don't get the air out,then,the diesel fuel will only travel up so far into the fuel line,until it is stopped by air,that's why a diesel is so hard to start after you run them outta fuel.
i dont think it can run once it is out of diesel
I have 2001 Isuzu NPR diesel, I ran empty diesel. Please tell me how I start the engine back? Thanks
Not in any modern diesels. Some old diesel tractors from the 1940's where gasoline start and then ran on diesel once the engine was warm. Those did have carburetors.Not in any modern diesels.

It won't run without fuel. If it ran dry it may take some time to get to the engine.
Put diesel fuel in it !... Then either press the starter button or pull the starter cord !
i have a Renault medan td i ran out of diesel and the battry was low now the car wont start only when its being bumped
Either manually pump fuel from the fuel tanks to the fuel filter, or else open up the fuel filter, and pour some diesel fuel directly into it.
My cat engine ran out of oil. I shut it off, fixed the problem then filled it with oil now it won't restart
One of My co-workers ran out of diesel in a,2004,dodge 3500 Cummings truck and need to know if it can start without going to the mech.shop? Yes, on a 2003 and later all you need to do is add fuel, turn the key on and off about ten times to pump fuel up to the engine. It should now start.
Fill up the fuel filter with diesel fuel before you try starting it.
No they ran on Diesel
no diesel
