primer bulb question

[wayne h]

when pumping my primer bulbs it does not get hard i can feel there is fuel in there but when i pump it i can hear the gas going back into the tank is this some kinda bypass so i dont blow the float needle ? the bulb gets firm just never hard

Re: primer bulb question

The primer bulb has a inlet and a outlet valve. Apparently yours is faulty. Pick up a new bulb assy at Wal*Mart, K-Mart, etc.
