[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 327408, member: 7544"] If the problem were being cause by improper venting (developing a vacuum in the tank) or by a flow issue caused by a kink in the tanks internal pickup line, I don't think pumping the bulb would circumvent either of those problems. The fact that you can pump the bulb and keep it running suggest to me that it's got a problem with the fuel pump or it's getting air in the system somewhere causing the fuel pump to be unable to do it's job. Just my opinion on this type failure. [/QUOTE]
