"1997 Johnson 200hp, 227 hours.
Recently replaced fuel pump, primer solenoid and vacuum switch. Boat will run "ok" with some misses and backfires with red switch on primer solenoid in the up/prime position. Will run about the same with it in the run position but will eventually shut down as if starved for fuel. Primer bulb is not flat and seems to prime line ok. Engine will fire if I keep priming bulb pumped prior to starting. Have not tried pumping it to see if the engine will contine to run while doing so. This test run was not done under load of water and was done on the hard with muffs.
Anyone?"
