Figure this one out....
Tried again today. I can pump it by hand, but after a couple hours of
use, it doesn't seem to help. I'm wondering if it gets worse after it warms up. It's a steady stop and go cycle, a little gas, then bog, then gas, then bog... What if... The fuel pump and delivery is working, but gas is being stopped after the fuel pump? How and where might this happen? I'm about ready to just drop it off at a Marina.... Just can't seem to isolate the problem. |

What can anyone tell me about "Timer base linkage"? I was reading
other related posts ( seems 1000's have had this same problem! ) and someone said to check the timer base linkage. I can idle all day long and it gets fuel, but will die at WOT unless I pump by hand. I almost think that the pulse isn't strong enough. Next will be all new lines from fuel pump to carbs. That's all that's left now to try... |

Jarrod, Have you tried ANY of the suggestions?
Did you borrow a complete fuel tank & fuelhose assembly & try it? Where the fuel line connects to the engine block/fuel pump there usually is a strainer/filter there. On a small old Chrysler it is one screw in the centre to access & clean it. PLEASE try to eliminate one of the possiblilities at a time........ it's the only foolproof way. If you have an older type fuel tank you can also check the filter on the end of the pickup pipe inside the tank. "Timer baselinkage"? .......... Did you look to see if the spark generating assembly advances with throttle opening? Are you indeed serious about solving this problem or just having a game with us? wrote in message ups.com...

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. |

Yes, but the bulb won't go flat on it's own.
