Ok, so I got bored and decided to go for it. FF change took only a handful of minutes once the car was jacked up and the undercarriage protection removed. I then spent quite a few minutes messing around with holding the on button for ten seconds, leaving the car in on, etc, etc. did this probably abut 4-5 times to the tune of 10-15 minutes. During the boredom, I googled fuel primer pumps which are only about 7 dollars and easily would've helped my paranoia which largely was due to the amount of fuel which came out of the old filter are removal (not the few drips which came out of the lines while changing). I'll probably order the BT for next time but the crank is going to happen right now, and survey says...

Started after what felt like 6 hrs of cranking but was actually about 3-5s (2011 MY)

...time to get started on the ATF. Have a good Saturday night, ladies & germs!
