Do I want or need a primer?

I have a primer system installed, never use it. Had to remove 2 of the 3 lines due to cracking, never bothered to replace them because I never use it.

I am considering just removing the system. Why? I don't know, but it is extra lines in my fuel system, extra failure points. Its like cindy crawfords mole, it's there, and it doesn't do anything.

Pros?

Cons?
 
You don’t need it.

When I built my 7A in 2009 my brand new O-360 came with primer lines installed. I removed them before I installed the engine and never regretted it.
