If you have a filter type water seperating fuel
filter, check for any signs of corrosion on
the the aluminum frame.

Not using a "seperator" now. I will when I hook up my new 100 gallon tank.

Also do not use a cheap primer ball they tend to leak as well.
New ball from West Marine, I plan to replace that one with a "yamaha" one before the next test/outing.

Make sure fuel vent
has no restictions.


Working off a 6 gallon portable, plastic tank w/ manual vent. So the problem is not there.

Last but not least update
your fuel pump.



That's in the works.
