A while back I had some issues with my engine running rough and sluggish. I ended up changing out the fuel pumping mechanism, fuel line, fuel filter, fresh gas/oil mix and spark plugs. At the end of the day, the main issue was the fuel pumper/primer, it had a small hole and never tightened as i pumped fuel. She runs great these days, IF i can get her started! This is all on a cold start, it will take more on the 20+ pulls to get it to start. I have checked just about everything: fuel pump bulb is hard, choke is set, fuel filter is clean, etc... Once she starts and runs a while, then I can start the engine in 1 or 2 pulls. Is there anything I am missing, or should check again? Could I be flooding the engine before I get to the boat ramp? Thanks for your help
