"Connect a new 6 gallon fuel can with fresh pre-mix, a new fuel line, new primer, and new connectors. If you still have fuel issues it is either the fuel pump, carburetors, or both. Outboard carbs get gunked-up very easily due to the fuel and oil mix. It is very common for them to require disassembly and cleaning. A simple automobile type pressure gauge connected to the output of the fuel pump, a fully charged battery, and a few revolutions of the engine will tell you if the fuel pump output is adequate."
