Prime, no, just the opposite. The water that leaked into the old scat hose
drained out through the holes in the old hose. The new hose doesn't leak,
therefore the water stays inside the hose to be sucked up into the engine.

PLEASE learn to snip. We really don't need to relive the whole thread. All
it does is waste bandwidth.

Oh and Mike, thanks for the water issue suggestions. Your explanation
would cover the symptoms we are seeing, I hadn't thought of that. We
will check it out. I do believe we replaced the tubing at that annual.
Are you suggesting that the old tubing may have leaked just enough to
trap the water, where previously it would have drained? What would be
different with new scat tubing?
