Here is the problem I cleaned the carbs twice now. When you first start it it will take off great but cuts out. After it cuts out you can get a little more out of it by playing with the choke but not much still slugish. After you play with the choke the primer bulb will leak down. If you shut the motor off you can hear the carb bowls filling back up seems like it is just the top carb but cannot tell for sure. Is this a fuel pump or by me playing with the choke causing it. If you dont play with the choke the bald is just a little soft.

Compression is 120 on all three and spark is solid when the problem occurs.

Re: Fuel pump

When you pump it you can sorta hear it try to come back but still wont.
