I have the same setup on my 2003 38 Open. Believe your problem is that air is getting into the supply line from the tank to the pump(s). I have a filter between the tank and the pumps. It's close to the pumps and I removed the cover/screen for cleaning. After re-installing the screen/cover the pumps wouldn't prime... Removed the cover & re-installed after making sure the gasket was seated. After re-installation the pumps primed and all was Ok. Remember to open any faucet when trying to get the system to prime ...M2C
