Fill to a level above the pump, should self-prime. If you wish, you can always unhook the hose coming out and run it first that way, but I've never had a problem with these self-priming and the hose is probably too stiff to come off easily.

Little or no time. The pump should be immersed in fluid, should pump immediately, perhaps a line is clogged.

Same problem on our 300E....I swapped pumps thinking the old one was dying....now I get nothing! Just a loud whirr.....I think the nozzles are plugged up....sigh.

It happens Paul. I know where there's a pair, ... and a nasty serpentine belt (I checked).
