My fishing buddy has a 2000 25hp 4stroke Suzuki that is bogging down at high end. It loses pressure in the bulb and if you pump it up the engine comes back to life.
The carbs have beeb torn apart and rebuilt,the tank, fuel lines, filter and bulb are all new (due to this problem)
The engine runs fine at all speeds other than wot and when it starts to buck , if you pull back on the throttle it runs fine or if you pump up the primer bulb it will run strong for about 10 sec before you have to do it again.
Whatcha think?

Re: Fuel pump going?

I'd say definately fuel problem and has the same symptoms as my engine when the pump failed.

If you have done all the other stuff I'd go and get a fuel pump and replace it.

I'm not a mechanic though.
