[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 396923, member: 12995"] If it's a clear filter, take the engine cover off and watch the filter while it's running to see if there is any air bubbles getting in or if the fuel level in the filter drops while it's running. I was getting air bubbles into my gas line at the engine connection. Disconnect the fuel line at the engine and the tank and reconnect them tightly to see if that changes anything. Also check the O ring for the squeeze ball in the fuel line. The ethanol in the fuel is eating up gaskets and O rings causing leaks at any possible connection point. [/QUOTE]
