I have a model J15ACCS Johnson that I have to keep pumping the bulb to keep the engine running. Any suggestions? I replaced the fuel pump, tank and the hose and still have the problem.

Look for air leaks in the fuel system, starting at the tank. If no leaks, it may well be that it's time to replace the fuel lines and bulb, especially if you have a cheapo bulb. The regulation OMC/BRP ones are quite good. The Tempo ones are quite bad.<br /><br />Bad check valves can do it.
