    1991 starcraft tach problem

    Johnson 50 fuel pump problem?

    I have a 2000 Johnson 50 HP. It recently has started to "bog down and die" while running. It will run great the whole time if you keep squeezing the primer bulb lightly while running. Is this a fuel pump problem? It's VRO but I have mixed my own gas for several years now.
