cant get it running picked it up for cheap. sat around for a while. got it home took off float cover primed all old gas out of the lines, stared right up. put it on the boat for a test no power under load and would stall out. rebuilt fuel pump started right up then a small fuel line that goes from the block behind the carb up to behind the coil broke. replaced that line. now motor wont start at all. the line that i am refering to spittes fuel from the end near the carb when i turn the flywheel. any ideas im getting plenty off fuel and has good spark im stumpped like i said motor ran until that line broke and was replaced. the orignal line was harder than the new line. any ideas would be great thank you.
