Should be self priming, I'd check fuel filter condition also. When I did my fuel filter I'd took a few turns before springing into life.
I also had to have a new fuel tank as had a hole, I have an issue now though of tank not registering level correctly. I may have a look in the summer but I tend to fill up on halfway. You could also check they haven't kinked a pipe.

NAVI950 , DAB+ & Rear Camera , quick heat, auto lights and rain sensor retrofit
