couple sentences lost here but probably not instructive and forgot anyhow
Tire pump to filter vent, massive leak from bottom oring @ 7-8psi (same as 15"vacuum). Removed bottom of fuel filter to inspect, no dirt or water, oring fine, reinstalled. Tested LP flow into water bottle 10sec front tank then 10 sec rear, less than 1/2cup. NG. Tried air pressure in tank prime (w return blocked), no joy. Tried vacuum at filter using large 4 wheel vacuum pump (Ram 1500) and vacuum brake bleeder , return still blocked, worked fine, solid fuel, no start. Tried vacuum IP return port, some bubbles very little fuel, no start (apparently can't pull fuel thru IP unless cranking). While recharging will find strap wrench and get one piece fuel filter and reprime. Was starting on first/second cyl this AM before I started 97595709 with it but now I know something that works and something that does not. Later
