Default MC Mondeo TDCi stalling/starving for fuel

Hi all,

Had an issue xmas eve with my Mondeo stalling shortly after starting, then winding over for 30 seconds or so before starting, then stalling again.

Didn't have time to muck with it, so took the wife's car instead. Finally got a chance to look this afternoon, and it started after 30 seconds of winding, then missed a little then cleared. Before i started it there appeared to be air in the fuel line after the filter, and obvious bubbles of air when it was missing.

Bubbles cleared out and it seems to be running fine now (haven't driven it though)

Any thoughts. Fuel filter has done around 22K km, i usually change it at 30K. Tank is over 1/4 full so i don't think it's that. Planning on replacing the filter tomorrow, then taking it for a run.
