It also tastes great after trying to pull a siphon on a tank... With a Miller Lite chaser of course

Anybody got any secrets after your boat has sat a month or 2? Ive never had this problem. Tank is 3/4 full, and I pumped that bulb for an hour yesterday, closed vent and open, neither would get it flowing. Any help would be appreciated! I hate even asking this, but never had this problem. Thanks |

1. Check tank vent – working properly 2. Check fuel pick up tube & screen in tank 3. Check fuel lines & filter for obstructions and collapsed/kinked lines 4. Check for any leaks in fuel line connections – leaks won’t always leak fuel but will allow air into lines 5. Seek professional help |

Check yo make sure the pickup tube didn't fall off. Mine fell off going across the lake one day and was a booger to fish out. |

Pull line from carb, put your finger over it while you pump remove it every 5-10 for a couple, then put back. Should do the trick. If not, could be something a bit more involved that was mentioned already. This was all it took for mine to get primed. Wouldn't work any other way. |

Figured it out. Back tracked from motor and found a loose fitting by the tank. Tightened it up, and good to go. Thanks for the help. Kind of made me feel like an idiot!
