what does the ball do when you pump it? does it get hard when you pump it up?
Fuel filter on motor when was it cleaned or replaced last?? Is the ball still hard after a hour? Might have a bad o ring or something and gas draining back after a while? Clean carbs as stated, all else fails try running on a portable tank and see what happens

My guess is its getting flooded.. and that something is letting fuel past the carbs. I don't know too much about carbs though. I stopped by a reputable shop and he suggested bringing him the carbs to rebuild. I've got fuel getting through all the filters (which were changed for this season), as well as into the carbs. I removed the screws on the bowl of the carbs and fuel is coming out when I pump the ball. It trickles out, but its coming out.
The ball gets hard when you pump it, i haven't checked to see if it stays hard though. How much could a rebuild run me on both carbs? I'd hate to have it done and that not be the issue. They already got me for a VRO pump which was the initial diagnosis. |

sounds like you need to sync and link the carbs. Meaning go back and set all the throttle linkages up, insureing the butterflys are closed all the way with teh throttle closed
