[QUOTE="earl60446, post: 442505, member: 4469"] I have a 89 48hp spl johnson. I pump the bulb til hard, then I turn the key and push in at the same time for about 3-4 seconds. If it does not start right away, I make sure the bulb is hard, if not, I pump it again. I think air might be in there sometimes, usually starts pretty soon after that. I use the primer to keep it going after it fires up with momentary squirts. This is only after a extended non-use, if using daily, she starts right up. FWIW Tim [/QUOTE]
