I've been struggling with how to do this for at least 2 years. My pump won't hold a prime, and I get some really wierd looks when I saw back and forth pumping on the hand pump while I have my lips wrapped around the faucet spout sucking away to try to make the prime come back! It always does, but sometimes it takes a minute or so, and what a hassle. Not the most sanitary thing in the world either. Always have to be sure I sanitize my mouth with alcohol after I get the prime up again.

The Admiral has also refused to use the sink until I get this fixed, so I'm also doing all the dishes!
