[QUOTE="SmokinM, post: 1836143, member: 21382"] I keep having trouble with this tractor when it sits for more than a week or so. I start it and it fires right off, runs for maybe 15-20 seconds then shuts off because it runs out of fuel. Obviously it is losing prime somehow but not sure where or how. Fuel line looks good and no leaks anywhere. When it is running no smoke or indicators it is sucking air somewhere. Is there a check valve somewhere I am missing that may need to be replaced. Other problem is this thing is a b”#&$ to bleed thru. The pump on top of the filter assembly doesn’t want to pump up fuel like it should. I end up having to put an air nozzle in the tank and trying to push fuel thru the system that way but that is not very efficient. Are these pumps rebuildable? Any reason why a primer bulb like a boat fuel line has couldn’t be installed? Thanks for any ideas and help. [/QUOTE]
