So I got this outboard for free from a friend for a boat I bought and cleaned the motor up and ran it for the first time again in almost 10 years the motor ran great at first but after a few minutes of running it would run out of fuel in the fuel filter ,the only way to keep it going is to keep priming the bulb if the fuel gets low in the fuel filter,now I am trying to figure out where the fuel pump or diaphragm is in the carb IMG_20241029_153432.jpgIMG_20241029_153432.jpgIMG_20241029_153432.jpgIMG_20241029_153427.jpgIMG_20241026_064156.jpgIMG_20241029_153424.jpgIMG_20241029_153417.jpg

Follow the fuel line from the quick connector and see where it leads, if it goes straight to the carb then it's gravity fed.
