I was about to drop someone sa airport this early morning and naexperience ko ulit yung hesitation sa startup to the point of stalling (bumaba less than 500rpm) - suspect ko agad sa fuel filter job so tinabi ko muna then I primed the pump (diba dapat the pump should be rock-hard? pag prime ko malambot) then checked the hoses. Nagamit ko naman and pagkauwi ko I checked all the clamps and yung return line sa assembly ay maluwag na and yung screw thread is stripped so I did replaced that clamp and primed it again until hard and OK na ulit.

This afternoon chineck ko yung fuel primer kung matigas and surprisingly its not, so ini-start ko and may hesitation ulit (as far as I know may hangin ulit sa system right?), so plan ko na lang to replace all hoses and clamps. I assume hindi naman ito kamahalan? Also may nabasa ako na the injectors should be bled? Could you expound on this so I can tell my mechanic.

Many thanks
I'm sorry for this very late reply. It is very possible that you could be pulling in air through faulty fuel hoses and clamps.

Regarding bleeding of injectors, you can do this if you suspect air in your system. You don't need to bleed air once you get your engine running.
