went to put my 1976 evinrude 85 on the lake today for the first time since last fall. I clean the carbs yesterday and today it wouldn’t fire off at the ramp. I took it home and found that I wasn’t getting any fuel to the carbs. It get fuel to the pump with the primer bulb. But is doesn’t go past. I replace the fuel pump last year. So I don’t think it’s an issue. So I’m at a lost. Anyone got any guesses??
 
Sounds like hoses are hooked up wrong on the pump.-----Switch the 2 hoses on the bottom of the pump.----Or post pictures of your set-up.

I have the cap hose going to the carbs. The middle on is the feed hose from the tank. And the rear one is hooked up to the crankcase pressure
