lilcrash, are you sanding down to the metal? or just a light rub over the original paint for a quick re-spray?
i use acrylic etch primer on bare metal and acrylic primer filler over that. i like the primer filler as it's easier to get rid of small imperfections in conjunction with a guide coat and once sanded back can be painted straight over with out having to spray a seperate primer.
if i am just rubbing back some old paint that has no imperfections on it, i'll paint straight over the old paint.
you should never leave your car in primer for extended periods of time, as moisture will get through the primer and will premote rust under your primer. meaning you've just wasted your time.
evilldave, are you referring to '2 pak primer' as a primer filler? kinda sounds like it in your description.
