Default Figure this one out....

wow... no games. I'd much rather be boating for what's left of the
summer than playing games. Here's where I'm at:
· New OMC bulb/assembly
· New fuel filter
· New VRO pump with VRO inlet capped
· New 6 Gallon Tank
* I also tried all new lines to the fuel pump, but no difference.
**** The Bulb does not collapse. I think I said when I pump it by
hand, I can squeeze it till it's flat. This allows me to run at full
throttle. It must be a blockage or restriction either before or after
the fuel pump.
I guess it can't be timing, since it ran well earlier this summer. It
runs smooth and fast when I pump by hand, but when i's hot out and
everything is hot, it's hard to pump even by hand.
I see that so many people have had this same issue, but noone ever
posts the followups.
