If you just fill the lines with the valve closed, then open the valve, the siphon will start on it's own.

WyldFya Baryancistrus demantoides MFK Member Dec 23, 2005 20,794 69 132 Moscow, ID Jul 27, 2007 #5 Yes it does. I'm not sure of the mechanics of it, but I still fill the lines then open the valve.
