I mean a different one. New is good.
We haven't determined, yet, that you have an engine problem.
The symptoms you describe often are caused by problems with the tank or
hoses.
Worst case is you have an AUX gas tank and hose. That's not a bad thing.

Tank LOOKS fine. Not very old. Vent works, threads good. When I take the
hose off the barb at the engine connector and squeeze the bulb, full flow
pumps out with no resistance. I DO think, tho, that trying another hose
will be a test case. Maybe just borrow one from a friend. In the meantime,
I'll change that motor fuel filter, and check the snap connector that goes
into the motor. I really think it's probably something simple. Once I find
it, that is.
