My Merc start just fine every time I pump the fuel line bulb BEFORE I start it.
But, when I start it, then motor around the lake shut it off and fish for an hour and go to start it, the motor has a hard time starting until I pump the fuel line bulb again. It takes four or five squeezes to make it hard, then it will start just fine.
Now my question is:
Should the bulb stay hard once the it is pumped and started?
Is it the check valves in the bulb that are leaking back or is it the check valves in the fuel pump on the motor?
What is your experience with the priming bulb?
Thanks for the input....Fish On...
