Re: Primer bulb or fuel pump?
Look for a pinhole leak in the fuel line,carb bowl gasket, and all fuel fittings.<br />Also, the Force 75HP has a problem with the screws that hold the fuel pump together backing-out from vibration. Use some locktite #271 on the threads. The check valves inside the pump have a tendancy to stick open on 1 year old fuel,and nothing short of rebuilding the pump will fix that.The good news is, they are easy and cheap to rebuild.There is a filter under the round "cap" of the pump,held-on with one screw. Clean and re-install.<br />I would check for at least 120lbs of compression too,because the pump operates on engine compression.<br />Also check tank vent for blockages.<br /><br />That's about all i can think of right now.<br />I hope you get it running first crank..If not, you know where we hang-out
