[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 503035, member: 3278"] [B]Thank you for your honest reply. The manual primer is just that. Manual. In order for it to function is has to be pumped in and out 2-3 times. You should feel fuel in it. By just pulling it open you are probably barely filling the chamber in it with fuel. Now....on the output side of the primer you should see a small black fuel line that goes to a tiny brass nipple. Pull the line off of this nipple and check to make sure the primer is indeed pumping fuel when you are manually pumping it. If it is you should be good to go. Simple learning curve to figure out how many pumps are perfect for fast starts. The primer can be left open during warm up but should be closed before running. One more check to make sure it is totally operational but lets see if this works for you first. Please get back to us. [/B] [/QUOTE]
