Had the intake tube almost completely submerged amd still wont prime. I filled the tank with water so it was over the outlet of the pump and took 5+ mins to prime and start pumping amd still barely moved water... amyone else have this problem, ive heard iys an issue with the XL yank but not the small on

Next time make sure the tube opening is pointed in the correct direction to scoop up water and pedal faster after turning on the pump. Should solve the issue. The system is designed to self prime. I never have to fill water in the tank first.
