Everyone, thanks for all the replies. Answered a lot of the questions,
generic pump reliability, etc. etc. And yes, make sure it is low pressure,
I think the weber instructions say 1 1/2#.
Gas cap is not vent, tank is vent through canister, and vent is open.
Air in filter is interesting, because, Yes, on the pump outlet filter I have
air trapped in the filter. And I have always wondered. Outlet filter fills
upon new installation and then gradually fills with air and about 1/4 full
of fuel, Inlet filter, no air. Maybe between inlet filter and pump, Two
hoses, time to replace them.
Again Thanks.
