[QUOTE="rewinder, post: 206507, member: 5688"] So the problem is solved!!! I went out today with new OEM Merc connectors on both tanks, and new bulbs (OEM OMC, they didn't carry the Merc brand) At no time did it falter upon acceleration, and the see thru Merc under hood fuel filter was always full. Stopping for 15 min or more made no difference either. It ran no different from before in terms of idleing and starting, when it was running with no problems before, so changing the fuel pump diaphragm made no difference. I will say that the Merc carb was easy to remove and install, no finger contortions to try to get the bolts back on. Thanks for the replies and suggestions, this is a great forum! So after replacing the plywood seat tops, replacing the transom and raising it to 20", the 30 y/o tinny is ready for striper and flounder fishing tomorrow! She ain't pretty, but she's functional!
