Went out last wed. to get some of those fish on the outer banks before the weather cames in and shuts it down. Got out there but the weather came in early and I developed a engine power loss issue. Nothing more than 4-5 mph @ full throttle and under load. I was able to put a priming bulb on the fuel line and my buddy became a human fuel pump for the next two hours.
Really seems to be a fuel volume problem.
I'll throw this out to see if theirs any ideas out there besides slapping on a $170 pump.
Also anyone out there using an electric fuel pump?
History- Just went thru entire fuel system in May. Polished fuel , all new filters, and thinking no worries in this area. Right
Now- Fuel pump vac.@ 3" @ idle and 10" @ 3 K. Pressure- 3 psi. @ all rpm.
all filters drained and spotless including the small one inside the pump.
