Suspect fuel pump pressure issue. Fuel line seems to have air leak. Have relaced fuel line to engine and replaced remaining fuel line fasteners with radiator clamps. Still, fuel semms to drain from fuel line as bulb loses pressure. Starts fine, and runs fine, but after running , shutting off and drifting, have to repump bulb, then will restart but kills when putting in gear. After several attemts, have to quickly gun it, which throws guests about the boat, then runs ok. Any ideas?

Glass inline visible fuel filter? That was my problem. After replacing all of the above I hadn't realized I was unscrewing the filter allowing enough air in to lose pressure. Also, if it had sat a while, check diaphragms in fuel pump for dry rot
