yesterday my 70 started "acting up" at idle it would "load up" and cough a big cough and die, then it may start back with lots of throttle and run great at high speeds but bad at idle, then finally yesterday it quit starting all together, not even trying to start, (im thinking fuel pump) has new plugs and new primer bulb (old one had cracks and was leaking a little) looked at fuel filter and it had no fuel in it, will do more checks this morning
just looking for any advice of what else it may be - thanks
