[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 232690, member: 3278"] Don't waste your time. That will not be your problem. The sole purpose of the pump is to fill the carb bowl and keep the needle and seat in the carb closed. If your carb is being filled with fuel, either with you squeezing the primer bulb or the fuel pump is supplying enough fuel then the issue is probably in your carb. Lets say you have a minor air leak in the pump but it is still enough to supply fuel to the engine to run. Any air supplied will simply vent out of the bowl, leaving only fuel/oil. You can find any air leak in that pump by applying pressure with the primer bulb. Your "air leak" will turn into a visible fuel leak. [/QUOTE]
