I agree with oldscool. Sounds like you've got a fuel delivery problem between your bulb and the vst. When you pump your bulb you are filling your vst and pressurizing the line between the vst and your bulb and the engine behaves. Then the line loses pressure for some reason. Try 3-100-101 in that link to boatinfo. If you have a vacuum gauge, you can stick it in line at various points to check for faulty pumps, air leaks, etc. If you have an air leak, some clear plastic line might show bubbles.
