Hi - ran out of oil and now have airlock in oil pipe?

Can anyone help - we ran out of heating oil and now have some in tank but there's no oil getting to the boiler. Seem to have airlock in pipe between tank and boiler. Can anyone help?

Somewhere between the tank and the boiler you should have a filter if so on top of the filter will be a screw slacken off the screw and you will notice once the fuel comes through bubbles in the fuel. You need to wait until this runs clear. There will be another bleed screw in the pump housing itself maybe on the pump itself .

hope this helps
