Howdy, Dane.<br /><br />I suppose you could, so long as it doesn't overwhelm the carb float valves. <br /><br />I wouldn't. It would be just one more possible disabling failure.<br /><br />Good luck. :)

Hello<br /> yes it is possible. walbro used to make pumps for this. you must insure ,for your safty and the safty of those around you, that the pump is USCG approved. I dont know of any kits avalible for that anymore but I am sure someone has it. good luck and keep posting

Hi Dane...<br /><br />Bomby offers a primer pump. Check with your local Johnny/Rude dealer for details.
