Yep. BustedBenz explained it well. You do not want to loosen the secondary fuel filter. When I changed my secondary filter and needed to prime it back up, I am guessing it was only 10 or 15 strokes. It then started up in short order with not problems.

Give it another try and I am guessing you will be firing up within a few minutes.
