TDF5G 2,073 #26 Posted February 16, 2022 (edited) Here's a follow up report on the fuel starvation saga. The primer bulb solved the hard start problem, but it caused the engine to starve for fuel. When mowing, we'd have to keep squeezing the bulb to keep her going. So I installed a Facet electric fuel pump late last summer. I was amazed that it bolted right to the frame without having to drill holes. I used the elbow fittings from the original pump and my brother fabricated a block off plate for where the original pump mounted on the engine. I picked up an ATC fuse add-on at Auto Zone to wire into the ignition circuit. So far so good. It starts right up every time no matter how long it sets and runs great! Thanks for everyone's help and advice. RS is awesome! Edited February 16, 2022 by TDF5G 3 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
