[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 388757, member: 12995"] Watch the fuel filter while it's running to see if it drops down until it's almost empty or for air bubbles possibly getting in. My fuel line to motor fitting seems to come loose from time to time and last weekend I started getting a bad bog and it turned out air was getting in. I could see the filter drain down and the air coming through. I disconnected the fuel line and noticed an air bubble on the o-ring so I seated it all the way and plugged it back in and it's fine. But watching the fuel filter might give you an idea if it's not getting enough fuel if it drops down when running. [/QUOTE]
