Recently obtained 72 Arrow Glass with 45 hp Johnson. Took on several test rides that went perfectly. After a couple times out started blowing fuses. Fixed open wire that seemed to be causing short in throttle/ignition housing. Took out gas tank to give me some room while working on it and upon reconnecting gas lines, it started for a about 45 seconds and then cut off. I have read the other posts talking about bulbs and realized I should have squeezed it while starting to sputter to see if it would help. Got a new primer bulb with hoses from wally world for johnson. I held it with arrow pointing up as mentioned in other post (and arrow is pointing toward engine). How hard should it harden up when priming? also tried taking off line from engine side and constantly pump it until gas would come out and no gas??? I even would let finger off end when sqeezing bulb and place finger back on fuel end when letting go of bulb? (to hopefully create vacuum) Still no luck in making gas come out the end. Any ideas? May post a link on youtube to show what I'm doing.
