"I have a 1976 Mercury 110 9.8HP. The motor starts on the first pull and runs for 15-60 seconds and then quits. I have replaced the fuel hose and squeeze bulb , the fuel pump and the float, but the problem persists. Any ideas on what the problem could be?"

The carb has been cleaned twice without effect. If I squeez the bulb the motor will continue to run for a few more seconds.

check your vent screw on you gas tank make sure it's clear...blow through it and make sure....when older parts wear out...the screw might wobble and cut venting so gas will not flow at times...
