How's the lift pump.
It sounds as if the injection pump just uses the little bit of oil in the top of the filter. The lift pump is supposed to keep it full. It isn't.
How do you prime your lines and filters?
On your westerbeke is the lift pump that ancient little electric vibrator thing or is it a mechanical pump? If it's the vibrater pump check the wiring.
