Re: Fuel Issue ?
The fuel hose primer bulb will get hard when you first pump it up each day prior to a cold start. Once the engine runs, the bulb will get soft-but should not collapse. That's normal. Sounds odd, but it's best if the arrow on the primer bulb is in the up position. If the arrrow is oriented downward it's possible that the ball valves in the hose bulb won't stay closed properly. Make sure you have no fuel leaks in the fuel lines under the cowling. If fuel is leaking out, air can leak in-causing running problems.
