    It takes a bit of running to pressurize the tank enough, especially if it is almost empty. It should build to significant pressure. Another possible thing is the fuel filter may be partially clogged.

    What is an average for a bit of running? My tank is between 1/4 and 1/2. It will run for about 45-60 secs. Thats without re priming. I haven’t been able to get outside to test if it helps to push the plunger down while running or not yet.
