I HAVE AN 05' LS185.B AND EVERYTIME I USE AND LET IT SET OVER NIGHT I NEED TO BLLED THE INJECTORS TO GET IT TO RUN AGAIN. I AM TRYING TO AVOID A $2500.00 PUMP!! ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS?
 
There is a check valve in the lift pump that keeps fuel from returning to the tank. Also any line that carries fuel to the injection pump that has a hole or leak can cause a problem. Make sure your bleed valves on you pump are tight. I would not suspect the injection pump so quickly. Have you changed the fuel filter lately. How many hours on unit. Does it run hot. How long has it had the problem. Does it have any leaks in the fuel system. Does it make good power once it starts. Does it smoke excessively. Is the fuel filter tight. Does unit have a strong battery. If you feel like everything is good pull the suction line from the tank and run the unit on a bottle of good fuel and see if it does the same thing. Give us some more info and keep us informed a fresh post gets alot of lookers and usually alot of help.

First off, try turning caps lock off. Writing in ALL CAPITALS does not help to get quicker replies, its regarded as yelling.
Frogfarmer has some good pointers. I don't know what sort of lift pump your machine uses, but if its run off the engine check your oil level, does it rise and smell of fuel? its possible your lift pump is leaking.
