Default fuel delivery problem on outboard? help

I've actually sucked a 6 gallon plastic tank flat - because I forgot to open
the vent.

I'd almost bet on the tank vent, particularly with the long time frame to
the first time it fades.
I totally overlooked that on my 1st post. Too obvious LOL.

If it's flattening the bulb, there is a restriction in the fuel tank,
or a fuel tank venting problem (creating a vacuum).

If you're using a portable tank, is the vent cap loose? If it's a
"built-in", I'd check the vent, and for crap in the tank that is
blocking the pickup tube.

Good luck,

...carry on.
noah

To email me, please remove the "FISH" from the net.
