Re: primer bulb
Can be sucing air on the vacuum side (Between 1st fuel pump and tank). And the fuel pumps can keep the fuel flowing better at higher rpm.<br /><br />If you checked your vacuum side, and you're confident that all is well, new diaphrams and non-returns in your fuel pumps will sort you out.<br /><br />Note: To help eliminate the vacuum side. When the bulb goes soft and motor starts to stutter. Pump the bulb as you do now, but take note of how easily it expands again after each pump. If it battles to expand, it means something is resticting the suction side. Shake the tank up a bit and see if it helps.<br /><br />Else it's either an air leak, or worn fuel pumps. Replace diaphrams only. If the situation doesn't improve, go for the non-returns.<br /><br />Else, fit a low pressure (0.3 bar) electric diaphram fuel pump. SU pump as they used to be called.
