[QUOTE="MikeA57, post: 365518, member: 1213"] Thanks OTW, but the motor starts when I use the old timey method and open the butterfly. It doesn't when I use the choke and the new fangled Enrichment Valve. One other thing I noticed is that last week when I was testing it out before I went to the lake, the bulb would firm up after a few pumps and I couldn't pump it anymore. Now though, the bulb won't do that. I pump and pump and it just keeps pumping fuel which I can smell after a few pumps. Is this starting to sound like maybe I need to clean the carb??? Thanks!
