i had this issue the first time that i took my tank out. it was the most frustrating thing to happen. especially having spent all that good money for a piece of Sh@#.

i went back to the shop where i bought it from and they told me the "secret". it turned out that i had the tube facing the wrong way. there is a slight curvature in the tube; the curve should be facing towards the water. as you peddle, the water will be forced up the curve and this is how it is self priming.
so if the tube that you have is the longer one made for the PA then check and make sure that the tube is facing the correct way.
