Evinrude E115TSLEU. I thought I had a problem with the fuel primer solenoid. I was getting no fuel at startup when depressing the key. Engine would start and run normally when you would move the throttle wide open a couple times before starting. I was getting no "click" noise from the primer pump when depressing key. Took to mechanic to check and he replaced my primer bulb, which I just replaced at the end of last year with an OMC origional. He said the solenoid was fine. I did make a change to the fuel system by running a second supply line to the water seperator/filter (the boat was set up for twins, but I'm running a single- I ran a line from each port to supply the filter- I made no change from the filter to the engine- which is where the primer bulb is.) Would this fuel line setup cause a priming problem, or is my mechanic just misdiagnosing an intermittent solenoid problem??<br /><br />Thanks for any help!
