Default Check them fuel hoses

Kinda gettin a feel for some of ya's, you'll probably run with the terminology.... but I'll explain it best I can....

But was out primin my bulb when goin out on the lake this weekend and low and behold, found a wet spot on my hose. Apparently, I had a pin-hole leak on the fuel hose just before the primin bulb... so that explains why my bulb wasnt stayin primed this weekend.

But any how, it only sprayed out in a fine mist, I would've missed it if not payin attention while primin the bulb, found the wet spot and investigated a little closer then noticed the leak.

Anywhoo..... thought I pass that on to anyone who cant keep their bulb primed or is having intermittent fuel happenin's...
