Greg,<br /><br />1. How is your fuel? Fresh?<br />2. Does the primer bulb pump up hard and stay that way?<br />3. Does choking it halfway or so make a difference?
Sure sounds like its time for a carb clean. You can try removing the drain plug at bottom front of float bowl. Sometimes drain the carb and spraying "Carb Kleen" into the hole and forcing it in with compressed air will get you by......but I'd recommend a carb disassemble and clean.....
