Need help from any DD16 guru's.

Checked it. Seems kind of dirty. So I will clean it. But I see fuel filled up to the top at the center as described in the picture. As for priming points. I don't have those. They are just bolts. The hole at the bottom of the filter housing seems to not be plugged and looks free of debris.
I'll try to send a picture once I downsize it.

 

I proceeded to clean housing, ensure the port at the bottom was not clogged and put it back together. Primed the living s#@& out of it. Still nothing. I thought that housing should be completely full of fuel when I take the cover off?

 

Lol I'll see what I can come up with. Simply for the adapter to connect to the primer port, I'll have to run to Freightliner for it. (100 miles away). So I might as well get a legit primer kit so I know it's done right for sure. I don't mind buying tools. They never go bad.

 

Oh wow. Hahaha. It really is a big sprayer. Do you by chance know where I can get just the connector? I called freightliner and other shops in town and they don't have it so I might have to revert to the interwebs for this one.
Does the connector look like a quick connect that's maybe... Half inch in diameter? Because that's what I have on my housing.

 

Oh my bad. Didnt see your first message on the adapter! Haha. Thank you so much!

 

I'm definitely gonna save some money and build my own. I can get a bug sprayer and a hose barb/threaded adapter at my local hardware store. So I'm gonna order the Kent Moore fitting asap. Again, I can't thank you enough. I will get back on here and let you know the verdict.
You said about 7gallons of fuel?
