Geez what are you doing? When you reintall the new filter you fill that sweetness completely with diesel. I usually get the main filter in place, slide out lsightly toward the belt and fill it with a diesel fuel additive, as it's easy to pour, or pre-fill it 1/2-3/4 with diesel then put it into position so that it doesn't spill out of the filter all over the place. After I tighten her up she may stumble for 5 seconds tops...
