When oops! bayliner quit on us last weekend we were able to get it running with a new set of points. While we were running it I noticed fuel in the clear line to the carb. Can you confirm that it should NOT have any fuel in this line and the pump needs work? Can a diaphram kit be found for a mid 80"s 140 Merc. He's spending all his extra money on the Ray so putting big money on a fuel pump right now is hard. Thanks for any help guys.

Bad diaphram in the fuel pump. Dont think it can be rebuilt.
