Default How do I reprime an OX66 after a VST filter change?

Is it as simple as pumping the primer bulb?

When the motor mounted fuel filter is filled with gas is that enough?

I dont want to burn up the low pressure pumps.

There is a float in the VST, just pump the primer bulb, it flows right through the LP pumps. You don't even need the VST full...just enough to get fuel pressure and the system will do the rest.
