Is it a need to vent the lines while filling the fuel tank? I know I you have to clamp the line to the motor. I have a Raptor 30 with an OS 37 that I still can't get to start. when it does start it runs about 3-4 seconds then dies and the motor is locked up I have to vent the glow plug to let the air and fuel escape. I'm wondering if I'm getting to much air in the system.

if it's flooding your getting to much fuel, lean the main needle valve.
the only venting you need in the fuel system is pressure line to the exhaust system.
