The look on a boater's face when I tell him to open the gas cap a crack,

One more advantage of direct injection two stroke engines - no primer
bulb.

Primer bulb - pfffhhhtt - ancient tech.


I understand your eTech runs on water vapors and pumps wine out the pee-er.


Not wine - bourbon.

BTW, in the years I have owned two Yamaha four strokes I never once have
touched the primer bulb.


Of course not.
