Default Re: Bad Fuel Pump??

I had an '88 Johnson 225 Looper that did just what you describe. After replacing the VRO pump, rebuilding all the carburetors twice, and replacing all the fuel lines, we discovered I had a bad stator. I replaced the stator and it ran great afterwards. The problem I had was uneven voltage and current to the powerpack. But I spent over $900 on the fuel system, before a friend came over and we tested the electical system. Fortunately, I kept all my old parts.
