The subject engine will start and idle for several minutes, however then cuts out and will not start again for several minutes. The same process is then repeated. The primer bulb is practically collasped and does not seem to get full. Would appreciate any suggestions or help. Thank you. We're new to this forum.

Your fuel delivery is not venting or you have a picnched fuel line somewhere.Are you opening the fuel tank vent if it is a portable?

Thank you. It's a built in system and I'm sure you're correct, however can't find the pinch or location of the cause for the fuel starvation.

Make sure you primer bulb is working right. Then chek the pick up in the tank, mabe something is sucking up againt it and cutting off fuel flow.
