Hey guys I just rebuilt my carb on my 76 johnson M# 15R76B

It ran good for about 25 minutes then died and won't hardly start. It only starts if I pull on it at about half throttle choking it. It fires just for a second. So I push the choke in and it fires up. It starts to rev up and then just dies like gas was cut off. what could do this? I pump the bulb even though it still feels, kinda tight and it doe?s the same thing. However I can't keep it running by pumping the bulb after I start it
