In order for a pump to work it needs something to Prime(suck) and because water and fuels arent solid enough you have to prime it. meaning fill the suction hose up so there is no air so the pump can suck. if there is air in it it wont work. as the pump sucks up the fuel/water in the hose it drags up the rest of whats in the tank or under the ground or what every your pumping. a self priming pump has a foot valve(one way hose) on it. when the pump suck up and is turned off all that is in the suction hose does not run back out it stays in the because of the foot valve.

Are rotary pumps self-priming and if not how do I prime it?
Some rotary pumps are self-priming when dry. These pumps have a priming chamber that automatically does the self-priming when the pump is not in use. To prime a pump yourself, the priming plug should be removed. Water should then be poured into the pump. The entire priming process should take no longer than five minutes. If it takes longer than that, it could be indicative of a mechanical problem.
