    I am trying to find out how to prime the fuel (think fuel filter is clogging) the engine shut off on me just as I parked
    Was reading thru manuals to prime the filter but how
    It states keep pressing a button and some say prime with the electronic switch
    Cant seem to find either one

    Well there is a bulb type switch on top of the filter. First remove the filter and fill it up with fuel, then install it back and push and release the bulb till it's hard to push it any more. Then turn the ignition key for about 10 seconds that will start your electric pump, then press the starter switch, if the engine doesn't start after 10 to 15 sec. then go and press the bulb again till it's hard to push, and again turn the ignition key wait 10 sec. and push the start button for about 10 to 15 seconds, you may need do do this few times before it starts.

    I actually just did all of this and came inside and saw your reply , it might help someone else

    I replaced the filted ,primed it with the nozzle (screw type thing, like bulb you said) filled with fuel both filter side and water separater
    works smooth!
    Not to bad being 1st day on the job trucking (seriously) 😆

    The prime button is n the passenger side and is silver (aluminum). It looks like a solenoid
