Will try new plugs. Other thing is even though I put new bulb and fuel line from tank to motor, bulb never gets hard when pumping,could it be starving for gas or vent problem? Thanks slow in the water Bill and ice on the way!

Found problem once I straightened out wiring,never had gauges or alarm horn. When warmed up alarm went off which sent me to thermostat which was bad. Replaced now runs great, it was over heating!
