First year opening the pool... I've filled my water and want to start up the pump. I don't know how to make it catch prime -- and I don't want to mess it up. I *already* took the skimmer basket plug out and pulled out the little foam insert. I tried to get it to start but I think I left it too short, like 5 seconds with nothing in the basket ( I was told not to let it run dry at one point or another...). I then shut it off and fill the basket again.....Do I *NEED* to have my skimmer plugged to start this pump and catch prime? I have the skimmer hole the to the deep end already plugged (I run my pool like that...) and now the return to the pump (ususally lots of suction at that hole).Thanks... hopefully I didn't mess my pool up!!!
