I have replaced the fuel filter, with new gaskets, and bleed out the system. when the engine is running the primer ball is sucked in. is it possible this was install backwards at one time.is there a check valve in the system? sometimes the engine will start but stalls out after a few seconds. I would think it is *** air in somewhere, I have checked out the filter a few times and have no leaks ??
