[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 423411, member: 13599"] Like Mike said: [b]go through the entire fuel delivery system[/b] it only takes a small issue to cause fuel starvation. I would go to the squeeze bulb, check for any air leaks. If it is hard and brittle, replace it. then, all the hose clamps and fittings. work from the gas tank to the fuel pump then to the carb. good luck = this is one of the most aggravating conditions in the outboard.
