    The primer must work to start engine.

    How true that is. With no choke, a good working primer is a necessity. Sounds as though your motor wants to go, but just needs a complete carburetor breakdown/clean/rebuild. I think that most will agree, the pochefamily website is a great resource for the carb rebuild as well as other topics.

    Regarding the primer washers, Lloyd L. would be my first choice. I have purchased them NOS from marineengine.com, but they may or may not have them. Seaway Marine is another one to try. Here’s a link to a business that has reproduction washers:
