    Fleetwin,
    What about the primer hose when I pinched it off the motor speed up a bit then died. It seems like it is running thru primer tube not the carb? My buddy at the marine shop said the primer might be bad and it is running thru it not the carb? Something about a bad diaphragm possibly in it??? I have never worked on one of these. The carb does look new. I will get some pics.

    Thanks,
    Joe

    ps id did disconnect the single kill wire did not effect it and I did spray brake cleaner around the crankcase haves, reed valve plates, top seal etc no motor speed change.

    I have not swapped coils yet but will do so.

    The reed valves bolts flanges etc seem not taken apart.

    I looked at the diagram on the primer assembly seems like mainly o-rings I have a nitrile o-ring assortment. I think I will pinch hose #13 off in the diagram to see if motor runs better might make it pull through carb not primer. If that doesn’t help I am going to pull the carb and inspect it the reeds and the primer.

    Thanks,
    Joe
