what would cause a 93 johnson 50 w/vro to start and run for 5 min then die. If I squeeze the primer bulb it will start again and run with a vro oil warning sounding. The hoses look good. I replaced the air and fuel diaphams in the fuel pump. Also replaced the pulse limiter. Are there check valves not included with the kits?

Check your fuel tank vent. As for the VRO alarm, many people end up disconecting them and adding oil maually. The pumps on some VRO have a habit of not providing the right amount of oil, either too much or too little
