I wouldn't use the hand pump to get the veggie fuel through the filter, in my setup I could pump all day and still get no oil even though the hand pump is basically brand new. What I have done before is remove the outgoing line from the veggie filter and hook up a Mity Vac with the bleeder bottle attached. This provides a much greater suction to move the oil. Once you fill the bleeder bottle and determine in fact there are no leaks, reattach the line and you can use the Hand pump to finish the job.
Good Luck
