I didn't want to be alarmist, but I've never heard the pump be loud just 
because the line wasn't primed: I HAVE heard that sound when there was a 
problem with the pump. MY pump sounded like that when it's relief valve failed 
a few months ago.

I'm gonna have to get my pump rebuilding gear ready....
