1995 J200 V6 - Was unable to prime fuel after the boat sat for seven months and a fuel/water separator change. Pumped the bulb many times with no indication of fuel flow. I removed the fuel line that enters the in-line fuel filter near the motor and was able to prime fuel into a catch bottle. I reconnected the fuel line to the in-line filter and was then able to prime and fill the bowls until floats closed needle valves. Motor started and ran fine on the hose. I never had to do this in past years after storage. Fuel hoses and primer bulb are two yrs old. Question: What is between the in-line filter near the motor and the primer manifold that feeds the carbs? Does it sound like something was preventing fuel from entering the carbs? Many thanks!
