Ok guys ; I have a 79 15 hp Johnson electric start (15E79) ran fine the first time out this year. The next time engine would run for 5 minutes then die. I check the fuel line and there was no pressure in the primer bulb,pumped it up, started and ran for 5 minutes. No pressure in the primer.
I rebuilt the fuel pump, but hat did nothing for the problem. I then changed fuel tanks, again no help,got a new fuel hose, again no help.
I am at a loss. The engine runs till it draws all the fuel from the line but wont draw fuel from the tank.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
