I aquired an Eska 2hp that has been sitting for a while and I was on a mission to set it started today. I dumped old gas out and cleaned the carb. I put carb back on and then found a red part thingyon the floor that I believe is the fuel pump diaphram. I did not see where it goes upon disassembly. Can anyone direct me as to location?. When I would open petcock gas would just pour right through the motor and come out the exhaust pipe. Thanks for any advice. Mark

Yep, the fuel pump. It goes in a cavity in the carburetor flange where it bolts up to the motor. It has to go in a certain position, like 1:00 and 7:00 o'clock if my memory is correct. If not, somebody will straighten me out.

Before you install it, make sure it isn't ruptured or split. It functions like a little flat bag.
