Post 16 vanguard fuel pump
Last fall at the end of duck season my 16 vanguard gdlt stopped pumping gas. Over the winter I replaced the pump and fuel lines to the carb and the short vacuum line. I also removed the inline fuel filter. The bulb will keep a good prime. Fittings on the tank are tight and the fuel line is good. Started it up today for the first time since last fall and it still won't suck gas through the fuel pump. As soon a I pump the bulb it takes right off again for 30 seconds until it runs out of gas. Any guesses on this one? Thanks for any info...

Where did you get your fuel pump from? I got a 18hp gdlt and I'm looking for an electric fuel pump for mine.

Not trying to insult - your vent on the tank is open?

It's not a electric pump and there is no shut off valve on the tank. It will run all day long if I pump the bulb every 30 sec
