Auxiliary Tank Not Syphoning ?

Have you checked that tank, vent and filler tube are not blocked or have an air leak?  If they are fine then the next thing to look at would be the main tanks cap and seal, if it isn't sealing well your not getting the suction you need as the fuel drains from the tank to create the syphon you need. 

 

They are a really basic system so the only other option would be if you don't have the needed volume in the main tank to get the syphon started?...

 

Good luck.

It's brand new aux tank so there shouldn't be an air leak, there isn't any block or kink. Main tank cap and seal is a possibility. I wasn't aware the main tank needed a certain amount to get things started but if not full was "fairly" full initially.
