I'll give that a try tomorrow afternoon. Too dark outside right now. I had assumed if I had algea I would see signs in the prefilter. Filter and fuel are very clear, but yes it does seem like its burning more fuel than it can pump at 60+ mph, and it sucks the main filter dry and untill it fills it up it gets only enough to maintain about 50 on level road.
It occures very suddenly its not a gradual loss. I'll let you know if the primer sees a restriction in the manner you said.
