When priming fuel line the bulb never stiffens, the fuel makes it to the internal filter but no further. Gas pours out of a small vent hole at bottom of exhaust tube. Is this a problem with fuel pump as diagram shows a line that goes to crankcase? Any ideas?

Hi, Dinomia

Welcome to iboats. :)

If the diaphram in the fuel pump is ruptured it is quite possible to pump fuel directly into the crankcase. Sounds like that may be your problem.
