Ok now motor runs till it's warm and then dies. Now when priming it's spitting fuel out of the overflow. I wonder if that fuel pump diaphragm is going out and putting debris in the line? I removed carb side line and tested, it's pumping fuel. How is that driven?
Long story short, took my 84 smokercraft (w/ 84 2 stroke 35Hp Merc) out in October for early goose season, general season was about a month away and so I didn't think I'd need to clear my fuel lines and, I let it set. Welp we had a cold snap here in Tennessee and they don't winterize their fuel...
