Thats OK as long as your engine is not to hot, and it does not take
to long to get all the air thru the system. DD injectors use fuel flow
to keep them cool.

You don't run the engine when priming so heat is not an issue. Most
times if I'm using the priming pump it's because I changed one of the
engine mounted filters which I always do cold anyway.

What if both filters clog offshore?
You going dead in the water in a storm while swapping filters?

I thought that was the purpose of having two filter housing and piping
them to shift from housing to housing.
