Does the primer bulb get firm when you pump it up? Remove the fuel line at carb connection and pump the primer bulb, do you get good fuel flow?

yes,fuel should shoot out when you push the key,if not,be sure the fuel is getting to the primer/choke,if it is,obviously the problem is the unit,you can buy parts,but,be sure there is no debis,its easy to take apart,4 screws

Re: 1989 Evinrude 30hp Hard Start

New parts might work depending upon which ones you bought. Just to be clear, you need to pump the fuel bulb until it is hard and then push in the key to prime. If I understand, you pulled one of the primer fuel lines from the carburetor and no fuel came out when you pressed in the key. In your first post, you said you heard the primer click. Is it still clicking? Another test you can do is to turn the primer red lever to the manual position, pull one of primer fuel lines connected to the carb, and then squeeze the fuel bulb. If you do not get a squirt of fuel that would indicate something is clogged along the way.
