    I have installed those round B&S  pumps ….not saying they don’t work but the subject came up a few years ago on this board.

    Something to do with the  brass mesh screen  over the pulse chamber of the pump allowing   the heavier  fuel-oil mix present in the pulse line t o ooze out the mesh.

    actually.. if I recall correctly conclusion on  the  B/S round pumps was that they  are better suited to  4 stroke application such as small engines for  garden tracors/ lawn mowers etc…

    For  2 stroke the square Mikuni pumps are better or  the basic  square OMC  pump if it can be adapted  so the crankcase pulse can be  fed to it.
