The motor will start but won't keep running. It has a new coil. The fuel pick up line is clean. Fuel isn't getting to carb? Suspect it might be the fuel pump but before spending wondered if any suggestions? Thanks.
 
Remove the line at the fitting to the carb, a bucket under the end and crank the motor you getting fuel out the end ?

No fuel then work backwards, got fuel in the yellow hose to the carb if yes the fuel pump is gone by by.

Make sure you get one 4-7 psi no more no less.

Say no fuel in the yellow line do a fuel pump psi test. Open the fuel pump there is a filter in there.

There is a fuel filter in the fitting that enters the carb.

You pulled up the fuel pickup tube out out of the tank and checked the anti-syphin valve?
