filling your filter with ATF? I don't remember doing that last time, I just read to lubricate the top right with a dab of diesel and filing the actual filter with diesel to remove as much air before priming the engine pump until diesel starts to spill over.

But other than that, yes the fuel tank filter is often a culprit for a few members, but wouldn't/shouldn't be disturbed by you just changing the fuel filters.

Check your inline fuel filters for excess bubbles or discoloration.
