With MPI engine...do you have to partly fill the fuel filter when replacing to help priming? Or can you put it in and turn the key? I am putting through the fogging mixture from remote tank but did not put any fuel mixture in the fuel filter. Thank you in advance for your responses. Worried to turn key...will it hurt the fuel pump?

I usually agree with you chris, not this time though. Running the electric fuel pump on EFI w/o fuel can cause damage to the pump over time, once or twice will be fine, but i wouldn't treat that method as SOP. Just my opinion//experiences.
