[QUOTE="Shaugh, post: 453994, member: 19781"] I agree with Pappy. First pull the high speed needle and see if fuel pumps out the hole when you squeeze the bulb. Also confirm that you put the little donut on the bottom of the main jet ? Part number 73 should fit over the bottom end of part 72 and seal it up where it goes into the float bowl: https://www.marineengine.com/parts/johnson-evinrude-parts.php?year=1957&hp=5.5&model=5514&manufacturer=Evinrude§ion=Carbutetor Additionally you say that the float valve was stuck. Is it properly assembled with the wire clip to insure that when the float drops it opens the valve ? There should be absolutely no tightness or sticking. [/QUOTE]
