I purchased a carb kit and manual for this motor, I have installed the kit per Manual it now runs great but only for a minute then quits if We squeeze the Bulb it will start again but only runs about a minute.
I have replaced the bulb and line making sure the arrow on the bulb points to the motor no difference.
Could I have done something wrong on the carb rebuild? Or is there somthing else I should check.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Easy.

Well guys here I am shame faced but Victorious.
I chased my tail for quite some time before finding the problem.
It seems that when I rebuilt the Carb I replaced the Carb. base gasket with one of the two to choose from I used the one that most closely resembled the original, when I decided the fuel pump just was not working I started looking for the Vacuum sorce and sure enough the gasket I used had a straight hole which lined up with the hole in the Carb. perfectly what I had not realized was the hole that supplies the vacuum in the motor did not which is why the original had an oval shaped hole in it.
Thanks for all the help and patients see you on the water,
Easy.;)
