Pajero fuel line problems

After sitting for more than one day facing uphill, my Pajero is extremely hard to start. I installed a check valve in the fuel line, thinking the diesel might be draining back into the fuel tank, but this didn't help. Has anyone had a similar problem? I can park it for a week on the flat or facing downhill, and no problem. Thanks.

Did you bleed the fuel system from the fuel filter ?
It's different than on the Delica's.
There is a plastic plunger the size of a quarter. Turn it counter-clockwise and it will pop out. You can pump it that way.
Make sure you disconnect the fuel line going to the injection pump before you start pumping it.
Pump until the air bubbles are out.
