I have a hard time starting the live well also so I started using the hand bilge pump with a hose attach and fill the water half way/cover the live well pump then run the tank. It runs all day without any problem after filling the live well. I did the extra length extension for the PA and it did not help for me.

One issue I found with mine was that the opening to the tube was facing back, thus there was no "vaccum" created. I spun the tube around so that the opening was facing forward, problem solved.
