ok when i was putting my new airdog 150 on the stock return fitting broke so i had to rig it up to the intake part now i didnt close up the broke return peice could this be causeing me to lose prime? it does seem like the fuel is draining back down and has to prime back up. my IP is new so i hope it isnt that.
