Troubleshooting

Fuel not priming or air still present

Check all connections are secure. Ensure the priming pump is functioning correctly. Verify the fuel filter is correctly installed and not blocked. Confirm the tool is compatible with the specific engine and fuel line configuration.

Difficulty connecting tool to fuel line

Ensure you are using the correct fuel line for the 10mm connection. Check for any debris in the connection port. If the fitting is stubborn, gently check for obstructions rather than forcing.
